Dear Shareholders:

You are cordially invited to attend the 2026 annual meeting (the "Meeting") of holders of common shares (the "Shareholders") of WSP Global Inc. (the "Corporation" or "WSP") to be held on May 7, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. (Eastern Time). The Corporation will host a hybrid meeting, conducted in person at Lumi Experience (1250 René-Lévesque Blvd. West, Suite 3610, Montréal, Québec H3B 4W8), as well as via live webcast. This hybrid format makes it possible for all shareholders to participate equally, regardless of their geographical location.

2025 marked the first year of execution under our 2025–2027 Global Strategic Action Plan, and WSP delivered strong profitability along with historically high free cash flow and backlog. These results underscore the resilience of our diversified global platform and further strengthened our balance sheet, allowing us to continue investing with discipline in operational excellence, talent development, and acquisitions. In 2025, our resources and expertise grew through carefully considered and strategically aligned acquisitions, including Ricardo, Lexica, Harmonic Analytics, and the milestone announcement of the acquisition of TRC, which has since closed. Each acquisition was guided by diligent oversight and long-term client demand which have strengthened our multidisciplinary platform and deepened our capabilities.

Throughout the year, the Board and Management remained highly attuned to the external environment, steering the organization through dynamic market conditions with clarity and sound judgment. The Board maintained rigorous oversight of strategic execution, capital deployment, and enterprise-wide risk management, reinforcing a disciplined approach and ongoing alignment with long-term priorities. Moreover, in keeping with our commitment to good corporate citizenship, we upheld leading governance practices that remain foundational to how we steward the organization on behalf of our people, our clients, and our shareholders.

Board renewal continued to support our long-term ambitions. We deepened the skills and perspectives that underpin our strategic focus and the critical needs of WSP's clients. As part of this evolution, the Board welcomed two new members in 2025 – Pascale Sourisse – who joined our Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee and is nominated for election at the Meeting and - Eric Lamarre - who joined our Audit Committee and was elected by the Shareholders at the last annual meeting of Shareholders held on May 8, 2025.

As we enter the second year of our strategic cycle, the momentum across the business continues to reinforce the Board's confidence in WSP's strategic direction. We will keep a steady focus on intentional growth, prudent capital decisions, and delivering durable value for our stakeholders.

We invite you to read the accompanying management information circular dated March 20, 2026.

We look forward to welcoming you to our Meeting and discussing our progress.

Yours very truly,

Alexandre L'Heureux President and Chief Executive Officer

Christopher Cole Chair of the Board of Directors

NOTICE-AND-ACCESS

As permitted by Canadian securities regulators, the Corporation has decided to use the "notice-and-access" mechanism for delivery to both registered and non-registered Shareholders of the Circular prepared in connection with the Meeting and other proxy-related materials (the "Meeting Materials") as well as the annual audited consolidated financial statements of the Corporation for the financial year ended December 31, 2025, together with the independent auditor's report thereon, and related management's discussion and analysis (together, the "Financial Statements"). Notice-and-access is a set of rules that allows issuers to post electronic versions of proxy-related materials online, via SEDAR+ and one other website, rather than mailing paper copies of such materials to Shareholders.

Under notice-and-access, Shareholders still receive in the mail the proxy form or voting instruction form enabling them to vote at the Meeting. However, instead of paper copies of the Meeting Materials and of the Financial Statements, Shareholders receive in the mail a notice which contains information on how they may access the Meeting Materials and the Financial Statements online and how to request paper copies of such documents. The use of notice-and-access will directly benefit the Corporation by substantially reducing our printing and mailing costs, while also being more environmentally responsible through reduced paper use.

In an effort to consciously reduce paper waste, the Corporation strongly encourages its Shareholders to opt for a fully paperless form of communication, including the notice of meeting, proxy voting forms or voting instruction forms. In order to do so, registered Shareholders may contact the Corporation's transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc. ("Computershare"), at 1-800-564-6253 or 1 514-982-7555 and non-registered Shareholders may contact their applicable securities broker holding their Shares. Alternatively, the paperless preference can be requested when submitting a proxy vote through the applicable online platform offered by Computershare for registered Shareholders or Broadridge for non-registered Shareholders. For any further questions or assistance, please contact the Corporation by telephone at 1 438-843-7519 or by email atinvestors@wsp.com.

How to access the Meeting Materials and the Financial Statements

Management Information Circular

GENERAL INFORMATION

This management information circular (the "Circular") is provided in connection with the solicitation of proxies by and on behalf of the management (the "Management") of WSP Global Inc. (the "Corporation" or "WSP") for use at the annual meeting of holders (the "Shareholders") of common shares (the "Shares") of the Corporation, and any adjournment thereof, to be held on May 7, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) (the "Meeting") and for purposes set forth in the accompanying notice of annual meeting of shareholders (the "Notice"). No person has been authorized to give any information or make any representation in connection with any other matters to be considered at the Meeting other than those contained in this Circular and, if given or made, any such information or representation must not be relied upon as having been authorized.

In this Circular, unless otherwise noted or the context otherwise indicates, references to "WSP" or the "Corporation" refer to WSP Global Inc. Where the context requires, these terms also include subsidiaries and associated companies to which WSP is the successor public issuer.

References in this Circular to the "Board of Directors" or "Board" refer to the board of directors of the Corporation. References to the "Shares" and to the "Shareholders" respectively refer to the common shares of the Corporation and to the shareholders of the Corporation. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined and used in this Circular have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the section "Glossary of Terms".

The information provided in this Circular is given as of March 20, 2026, unless otherwise indicated.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

In addition to disclosure of historical information, the Corporation may make or provide statements or information in this Circular that are not based on historical or current facts and which may constitute forward-looking information or forward-looking statements (collectively, "forward-looking statements") under Canadian securities laws. These forward-looking statements relate to future events or future performance and reflect the expectations of Management regarding, without limitation, the growth, results of operations, performance and business prospects and opportunities of the Corporation or the trends affecting its industry.

Forward-looking statements can typically be identified by terminology such as "may", "will", "should", "expect", "plan", "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "predict", "forecast", "project", "intend", "target", "potential", "continue" or the negative of these terms or terminology of a similar nature, including references to assumptions. Forward-looking statements made by the Corporation in this Circular include, without limitation, statements about our commitment to exemplary governance; our strive to create positive impacts through our designs and advice; our development of innovation; our future growth and potential; our intent to pursue strategic acquisitions; our results of operations and profitability; our proposed strategy and operating performance; business prospects and opportunities; our 2025-2027 Global Strategic Action Plan, including related financial targets; the long-term aspirations of the Corporation; our stated objectives to achieve net zero across our value chain by 2040 and our other greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction objectives; our targets to increase SDG-Linked Revenues; anticipated levels of organic and acquisition growth; our intention to strategically expand our presence in select high-growth markets and to capitalize on emerging opportunities and drive sustainable growth; our plans to establish digital alliances and enhance our capabilities and boost efficiency through automation; and our aim to leverage our global scale, culture of innovation, and unified approach to optimize our operations further and elevate our client-centric experience. Such forward-looking statements reflect current beliefs of Management and are based on certain factors and assumptions as set forth in this Circular, which by their nature are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties.

Forward-looking statements made by the Corporation are based on a number of operational and other assumptions believed by the Corporation to be reasonable as at the date such statements were made, including assumptions set out through this Circular and including, without limitation, assumptions about general economic and political conditions; economic and market assumptions regarding competition; the state of the global economy and the economies of the regions in which the Corporation operates; the state of and access to global and local capital and credit markets; the expected benefits of acquisitions and the expected synergies to be realized as a result thereof; interest rates; working capital requirements; the collection of accounts receivable; the Corporation obtaining new contract awards; the type of contracts entered into by the Corporation; the anticipated margins under new contract awards; the adequate utilization of the Corporation's workforce; the ability of the Corporation to attract new clients; the ability of the Corporation to retain current clients; changes in contract performance; project delivery; the ability of the Corporation to successfully acquire and integrate businesses; the acquisition of businesses in the future; the Corporation's ability to manage growth; external factors affecting the global operations of the Corporation; the state of the Corporation's backlog and pipeline of opportunities in various reportable segments; the joint arrangements into which the Corporation has entered or will enter; capital investments made by the public and private sectors; clients' ability and willingness to incorporate climate and nature-related solutions into their projects; relationships with suppliers and subconsultants; relationships with management, key professionals and other employees of the Corporation; the maintenance of sufficient insurance; the management of environmental, social and health and safety risks; the sufficiency of the Corporation's current and planned information systems, communications technology and other technology; the sufficiency of the Corporation's cybersecurity measures; compliance with laws and regulations; future legal proceedings; the sufficiency of internal and disclosure controls; the regulatory environment; impairment of goodwill; foreign currency fluctuation; the tax legislation and regulations to which the Corporation is subject and the state of the Corporation's benefit plans. If these assumptions prove to be inaccurate, the Corporation's actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied in forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements contained in this Circular for periods beyond 2026 involve longer-term assumptions and estimates than forward-looking statements for 2026 and are consequently subject to greater uncertainty. In particular, our science-based GHG emissions reduction targets are based on a number of assumptions including, without limitation, the following principal assumptions: our ability to continue effective management of environmental risk, including climate and nature-related risks; our ability to develop and implement various corporate and business initiatives, including new procedures, policies and targets to decarbonize our operations and supply chain, reduce our energy consumption and foster a new culture of low carbon behavioural change and choices, which can result in absolute GHG emissions reductions across our global value chain; our ability to replace our vehicle fleet with low/zero emission vehicles; our ability to reduce business travel; our ability to access and implement all technology necessary to achieve our science-based GHG emissions reduction targets (SBTs), as well as the development and performance of such technology; availability of quality and no significant increases in cost to purchase sufficient credible carbon credits and renewable energy certificates to offset or further reduce our GHG emissions, if and when required; sufficient supplier and business partner engagement, willingness/ability and collaboration in setting their own SBTs and reducing their own GHG emissions; no new business acquisitions or technologies, investments or joint ventures that would materially increase our anticipated levels of GHG emissions; no negative impact on the calculation of our GHG emissions from refinements in, or modifications to, international standards; no required changes to the GHG Protocol's corporate accounting standards or the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) methodology that would require us to change our SBTs or make the achievement of our updated SBTs more onerous; availability, stable cost and market development of sustainable aviation fuel; and landlords' ability and willingness to transition to fully electric buildings.

In evaluating these forward-looking statements, investors should specifically consider various risk factors, which, if realized, could cause the Corporation's actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in forwardlooking statements. Such risk factors include, but are not limited to, the rising complexity of the geopolitical landscape and macro-economic developments; the failure to maintain our competitive positioning in rapidly changing competitive markets; the failure to effectively adopt, integrate, and leverage existing and emerging technologies in our operations; the failure to implement sufficient corporate and business initiatives; difficulty in accurately measuring, evaluating and disclosing our sustainability performance; our inability to collect environmental, social and governance data from acquired companies, including for historical years; our inability to collect energy, water, waste and GHG emissions data from external data providers, including landlords, fleet managers and business travel vendors; our inability to estimate employee commuting and work-from-home emissions; inability or unwillingness of suppliers to set and achieve their own science-based targets or to disclose GHG emissions data and reduce emissions, including for historical years; unavailability of electric vehicles and/or failure to install electric vehicle chargers at leased office space; unavailability of energy efficient buildings; failure to attract and retain qualified staff to support capturing opportunities associated with the low-carbon transition; failure to accurately estimate the sustainability benefits of our project work; negative stakeholder perception or reaction to our sustainability performance or initiatives; failure to identify climate and nature-related opportunities as well as assess and manage climate and nature-related risks, as well as the other risks detailed in section 20, "Risk Factors" of the Corporation's management's discussion and analysis for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2025 ("MD&A"), as may be supplemented from time to time in reports filed by the Corporation with securities regulators or securities commissions or other documents that the Corporation makes public, which is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and which section is incorporated herein by reference.

Actual results and events may be significantly different from what we currently expect because of the risks associated with our business, industry and global economy and of the assumptions made in relation to these risks. As such, there can be no assurance that actual results will be consistent with forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this Circular describe the Corporation's expectations as of the date of this Circular and, accordingly, are subject to change after such date. Except as may be required by applicable law, the Corporation does not assume any obligation to publicly update or to revise any forward-looking statements made in this Circular or otherwise, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The Corporation may also make oral forward-looking statements from time to time. The Corporation advises that the above paragraphs and the risk factors set forth in the "Risk Factors" section of the Corporation's MD&A should be read for a description of certain factors that could cause the actual results of the Corporation to differ materially from the results expressed or implied in any oral forward-looking statements.The forward-looking statements contained in this Circular are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

SHARES AND QUORUM

The record date for determination of Shareholders entitled to receive notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting is March 20, 2026 (the "Record Date"). As of March 20, 2026, there were 134,816,636 Shares issued and outstanding. Each Share carries the right to one vote on all matters which come before the Meeting. Shareholders of record are entitled to receive notice of, and vote at, the Meeting. The list of Shareholders entitled to vote at the Meeting will be available for inspection after March 20, 2026, during usual business hours by contacting the Corporation's transfer agent, Computershare Investor Services Inc. ("Computershare"), at 1-800-564-6253 (tollfree within North America) or 1 514-982-7555 (outside of North America).

Pursuant to the by-laws of the Corporation, a quorum of Shareholders is present at the Meeting if the holders of not less than 25% of the Shares entitled to vote at the Meeting are present or represented by proxy, and at least two persons entitled to vote at the Meeting are actually present at the Meeting, which for the purposes of the by-laws, includes persons participating in the Meeting by electronic means.

PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDERS

Name Number of Shares beneficially owned,
controlled or directed directly or indirectly
Percentage of Shares outstanding
Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec 18,695,055 13.87%

General Proxy Matters

PROXY SOLICITATION

The solicitation of proxies by this Circular is being made by or on behalf of Management primarily by mail, but proxies may also be solicited via the Internet, by telephone, in writing or in person, by Directors, officers or regular employees of the Corporation who will receive no compensation therefor in addition to their regular remuneration. The cost of the solicitation is expected to be nominal and will be borne by the Corporation.

NOTICE-AND-ACCESS

As permitted by Canadian securities regulators, the Corporation uses the "notice-and-access" mechanism set out in Regulation 54-101 respecting Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer for delivery of the Meeting Materials as well as the Financial Statements to the Shareholders. The Corporation has adopted notice-and-access for both registered and non-registered Shareholders. Notice-and-access is a set of rules that allows issuers to post electronic versions of proxy-related materials online, via SEDAR+ and one other website, rather than mailing paper copies of such materials to Shareholders. Instead of receiving this Circular with the form of proxy or voting instruction form, Shareholders received a notice with instructions on how to access the remaining Meeting Materials online. The Notice and proxy form or voting instruction form have been sent to both registered and non-registered Shareholders. Non-registered Shareholders are either "objecting beneficial owners" or "OBOs" who object that intermediaries disclose information about their ownership in the Corporation, or "nonobjecting beneficial owners" or "NOBOs", who do not object to such disclosure.

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT – HOW TO VOTE YOUR SHARES

As a Shareholder, it is very important that you read the following information on how to vote your Shares and then vote your Shares, either by proxy or by attending the Meeting. How you can vote your Shares depends on whether you are a registered Shareholder or a non-registered Shareholder.

held in your name.
You are a "non-registered Shareholder" if your Shares are listed in

If you are not sure whether you are a registered
Shareholder, please contact the Corporation's transfer

desk at Lumi Experience - 1250 René-Lévesque Blvd. West, Suite 3610, Montréal, Québec H3B 4W8.
Virtually If you are a registered Shareholder, you will be able to attend, participate, submit questions and vote at
the Meeting by logging in online and following the instructions under the section "How to attend the

can vote your Shares at the Meeting if you have instructed your Nominee to appoint you as Proxyholder
by submitting your voting instruction form identifying yourself as Proxyholder. To do this, enter your name
in the appropriate box on the website or write your name in the blank space provided on the voting

you have not instructed your Nominee to appoint you as Proxyholder, you will not be able to vote at the
Meeting, but you will be able to participate as a guest. This is because your Shares are registered in the

APPOINTING A PROXYHOLDER TO VOTE AT THE MEETING

Any Shareholder entitled to vote at the Meeting may by means of a proxy appoint a Proxyholder or one or more alternate Proxyholders, who are not required to be Shareholders, to attend and act at the Meeting in the manner and to the extent authorized by the proxy and with the authority conferred by the proxy. Voting by proxy means that you are giving your Proxyholder the authority to vote your Shares for you, in accordance with your instructions, at the Meeting.

You may choose to direct how your Proxyholder shall vote on matters that may come before the Meeting. Unless you instruct otherwise, your Proxyholder will have full authority to attend, vote, and otherwise act in respect of all matters that may come before the Meeting, even if these matters are not set out in the proxy form, voting instruction form or the Circular.

Alexandre L'Heureux and Philippe Fortier, who are named on the form of proxy and the voting instruction form ("Named Proxyholders"), are executive officers of the Corporation and will vote your Shares for you in accordance with your instructions. As a Shareholder, you have the right to appoint a person or company to be your Proxyholder at the Meeting, other than the Named Proxyholders, by filling in the name of the person voting for you in the blank space provided on the form of proxy or the voting instruction form.

If you choose to appoint a Proxyholder other than the Named Proxyholders, you must make sure that the person you appoint as your Proxyholder is aware that he or she has been appointed and attends and votes at the Meeting, otherwise your vote will not be taken into account.

You can choose to vote "FOR" or "WITHHOLD" with respect to the appointment of the independent auditor of the Corporation.

When you submit the form of proxy or voting instruction form, as applicable, without appointing an alternate Proxyholder, you authorize the Named Proxyholders to vote your Shares for you at the Meeting in accordance with your instructions.

If you have NOT specified how to vote on a particular matter, your Proxyholder is entitled to vote your Shares as they see fit. Please note that if you return your proxy without specifying how you want to vote your Shares and if you have authorized the Named Proxyholders as your Proxyholder, the Named Proxyholders will vote your Shares FOR each item scheduled to come before the Meeting and as they see fit on any other matter that may properly come before the Meeting.

Management is not aware of any other matter which will be presented for action at the Meeting. If, however, other matters properly come before the Meeting, the Named Proxyholders will vote in accordance with their best judgment, pursuant to the discretionary authority conferred by the proxy with respect to such other matters.

You have the right to appoint a person or company other than the Named Proxyholders to be your Proxyholder. This person does not have to be a Shareholder. If you are appointing someone else to vote your Shares for you at the Meeting, fill in the name of the person voting for you in the blank space provided on the form of proxy or voting instruction form (as applicable).

You may choose to direct how your Proxyholder shall vote on matters that may come before the Meeting.

A Proxyholder has the same rights as the Shareholder by whom they were appointed to participate at the Meeting in respect of any matter, to vote by way of ballot at the Meeting and, except where the Proxyholder has conflicting instructions from more than one Shareholder, to vote at the Meeting in respect of any matter.

If you are an individual Shareholder, you or your authorized attorney must sign the form of proxy or voting instruction form. If you are a corporation or other legal entity, an authorized officer or attorney must sign the form of proxy or voting instruction form.

If you are a Shareholder holding Employee Shares, you may do so at any time before 11:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) on May 5, 2026, and if you are a Shareholder other than a Shareholder holding Employee Shares, at any time up to and including the last business day preceding the day of the Meeting, at which the proxy is to be used.

If the voting instructions were conveyed online, by telephone or by mail, conveying new voting instructions online, by telephone or by mail prior to the applicable cut-off times will revoke the prior instructions. If you are a registered Shareholder, voting at the Meeting will automatically cancel any proxy you completed and submitted earlier.

Business of the Meeting

1. PRESENTATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The audited consolidated financial statements of the Corporation for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 will be presented to Shareholders at the Meeting but will not be subject to a vote. The Financial Statements are available on our website at www.wsp.com under "Investors"/"Reports & Filings" or on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

2. ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The articles of the Corporation provide for a minimum of three (3) and a maximum of fifteen (15) Directors. The Board of Directors is currently composed of nine (9) members, and the Board of Directors has fixed at nine (9) the number of Directors to be elected at the Meeting. Out of the nine (9) Director Nominees, all are currently serving on the Board of Directors, and eight (8) of these nine (9) were elected by the Shareholders at the annual meeting of Shareholders held on May 8, 2025. Each Director so elected at the Meeting will hold office until the end of the next annual meeting of Shareholders or until their successor is appointed, unless their office is vacated at an earlier date. Please see the section "Nominees for Election to the Board of Directors" .

In accordance with the Canada Business Corporations Act ("CBCA"), shareholders are required to either vote "for" or "against" director nominees. As a result, if, at the Meeting, a Director Nominee does not receive a majority of the votes cast for their election, such nominee will not be elected and the director position will remain vacant, or, if in the case of incumbent directors, such director may continue in office until the earlier of the 90th day after the vote and the day on which his or her successor is appointed or elected.

Voting Recommendation

The Board of Directors recommends that Shareholders vote FOR the election of each Director Nominee. If you have not specified how you want your Shares voted and if you have authorized the Named Proxyholders as your Proxyholder, the Named Proxyholders will vote FOR the election of each of the Director Nominees. Shareholders should note that the form of proxy or voting instruction form, as applicable, provides for voting for individual Directors as opposed to voting for Directors as a slate.

3. APPOINTMENT OF AUDITOR

The Board of Directors, on the advice of the Audit Committee and after assessing audit quality, auditor tenure, appropriateness of estimated fees, and feedback received from shareholder engagement on auditor independence, recommends that PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC") be reappointed as independent auditor of the Corporation. The auditor appointed at the Meeting will serve until the next annual meeting of Shareholders, or until its successor is appointed, at a remuneration to be fixed by the Board.

Voting Recommendation

The Board of Directors, upon recommendation from the Audit Committee, recommends that Shareholders vote FOR the appointment of PwC as independent auditor of the Corporation and FOR authorizing the Board to determine their remuneration. If you have not specified how you want your Shares voted and if you have authorized the Named Proxyholders as your Proxyholder, the Named Proxyholders will vote FOR the appointment of PwC as independent auditor of the Corporation and FOR authorizing the Board to determine their remuneration.

External Auditor Review and Engagement

The Corporation recognizes that auditor independence is critical to the integrity of its financial information. As such, the auditor selection process is designed to maintain auditor independence while balancing a need for continuity of knowledge in order to ensure a high quality audit provided by an audit firm with the depth and breadth of experience to effectively and efficiently audit a global company with complex operations.

In accordance with its charter, the Audit Committee annually reviews the experience and qualifications of the external audit team, the quality of their service and their independence.

The Audit Committee carefully considered the following factors as part of its evaluation:

  • The quality and efficiency of PwC's historical and recent audit plans and performance on the WSP audit;
  • PwC's capability and expertise in handling the breadth and complexity of WSP's worldwide operations;
  • PwC's expertise in, and knowledge of, the global professional services industry and its network of partners and managers in WSP's key areas of global operation;
  • The desired balance of PwC's experience and fresh perspective occasioned by mandatory audit partner rotation and PwC's periodic rotation of other audit management;
  • External data on audit quality and performance, including recent Canadian Public Accountability Board ("CPAB") reports on PwC and its peer firms;
  • The appropriateness of PwC's fees for audit and non-audit services;
  • The quality and candor of PwC's communications with the Audit Committee and Management;
  • PwC's independence and objectivity in its performance of audit services; and
  • PwC's tenure as the Corporation's independent auditor, including the benefits of having a long-tenured auditor, in conjunction with controls and processes that help safeguard PwC's independence.

The Audit Committee believes that PwC's tenure as WSP's independent auditor confers distinct benefits, including:

  • Enhanced audit quality. Through many years of experience with WSP, PwC has gained significant institutional knowledge of, and a deep expertise regarding, WSP's global business and operations, accounting policies and practices, and internal control over financial reporting.
  • Effective audit plans and efficient fee structures. PwC's extensive knowledge of WSP's business and control framework enables it to design effective audit plans that cover key risk areas while capturing cost efficiencies in audit scope and internal control testing.
  • Maintaining continuity avoids disruption. Bringing on a new auditor, without reasonable cause, would require extensive education and a significant period of time for the new auditor to reach a comparable level of knowledge and familiarity with WSP's business and control framework. Many of the efficiencies gained over the course of WSP's relationship with PwC could be lost.

The Audit Committee believes that any concerns with PwC's tenure are mitigated by strong independence controls, specifically:

Thorough Audit Committee oversight. The Audit Committee's oversight includes in camera meetings with PwC and a comprehensive annual evaluation by the Audit Committee in determining whether to engage PwC.

  • Robust preapproval policies and procedures, limits on non-audit services and hiring policies. The Audit Committee must pre-approve all audit and non-audit services, including the type of services to be provided and the estimated fees related to those services. Categories of permissible non-audit services are limited to those not affecting PwC's independence or otherwise not barred by regulation. Further, the Audit Committee has adopted a policy regarding WSP's employment of former PwC employees to ensure that auditor independence is not impaired.
  • Internal PwC independence, policies, and procedures. PwC conducts periodic internal quality reviews of its audit work and rotates lead engagement partners and auxiliary engagement partners after a maximum of seven years. PwC also conducts mandatory annual training for all professional staff globally on independence requirements and procedures.

Based on this evaluation, the Audit Committee concluded that PwC is independent and that it is in the best interests of WSP and its Shareholders to retain PwC as WSP's independent auditor for 2026. As such, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board for approval, and the Board approved, the recommendation that shareholders vote for the appointment of PwC as independent auditor of the Corporation for the year ending December 31, 2026.

Pre-Approval Policy for External Auditor Services

The Audit Committee has adopted procedures for the pre-approval of engagement for services of its external auditor, which require pre-approval of all audit and non-audit services provided by the external auditor. Moreover, the Board of Directors, upon recommendation of the Audit Committee, approves, on an annual basis, the fees charged to the Corporation by PwC.

External Auditor Service Fee

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the following fees were billed to the Corporation by its external auditor, PwC and its affiliates:

Year ended December 31, 2025 Year ended December 31, 2024
Audit Fees(1) \$6,199,504 \$5,769,390
Audit-Related Fees(2) \$743,727 \$1,075,919
Tax Fees(3) \$511,870 \$271,300
All Other Fees(4) \$4,570 \$992,501
Total Fees Paid \$7,459,671 \$8,109,110

(1) "Audit Fees" include fees necessary to perform the annual audit of the Corporation's consolidated financial statements, as well as the annual audits of certain subsidiaries of the Corporation.

(2) "Audit-Related Fees" include fees for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the financial statements and are not reported under "Audit Fees".

(3) "Tax Fees" include fees for all tax services other than those included in "Audit Fees" and "Audit-Related Fees". This category includes mainly fees for tax compliance.

(4) "All Other Fees" include fees for products and services provided by the auditors other than those described above. For 2024, these fees mainly included transformation assistance services in relation with the operating model of the finance and legal functions, which are now completed. Management and the Audit Committee concluded that these services provided by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP were permitted services under applicable independence standards, and appropriate safeguards were implemented by Management and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to ensure independence was maintained. In addition, both years include fees for subscription to publications.

4. NON-BINDING ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The GECC and the Board spend considerable time and effort overseeing the Corporation's executive compensation program, and are satisfied that the policies and programs in place are based on fundamental principles of pay-for-performance aimed at aligning the interests of the senior executive team with those of the Shareholders while reflecting competitive market practices. This compensation approach allows the Corporation to attract, retain and motivate high-performing executives who will be incentivized to increase business performance and enhance Shareholder value on a sustainable basis.

The Board is also committed to maintaining an ongoing engagement process with Shareholders by adopting effective measures to receive shareholder feedback. In this light, the purpose of the annual Shareholder nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation is to provide Shareholders with a formal opportunity to provide their views on the Corporation's approach to executive compensation, which is described in further detail under the section "Compensation Discussion & Analysis". Shareholders are encouraged to carefully review the information provided in this Circular before voting on this matter. While Shareholders will provide their collective advisory vote, the Directors remain fully responsible for their compensation decisions and are not relieved of these responsibilities by a positive advisory vote by Shareholders.

At the annual meeting of Shareholders held on May 8, 2025, the Corporation's approach to executive compensation was approved by 96.29% of the Shares voted on the non-binding, advisory resolution on executive compensation.

Voting Recommendation

The Board proposes that you indicate your support for the Corporation's approach to executive compensation disclosed in this Circular by voting FOR the following advisory resolution:

"RESOLVED, on an advisory basis and not to diminish the role and responsibilities of the Board of Directors of WSP Global Inc. (the "Corporation"), that the shareholders of the Corporation accept the approach to executive compensation disclosed in the Corporation's Management Information Circular dated March 20, 2026 delivered in advance of the 2026 annual meeting of the Shareholders of the Corporation".

If you have not specified how you want your Shares voted and if you have authorized the Named Proxyholders as your Proxyholder, the Named Proxyholders will vote FOR the above non-binding, advisory resolution on executive compensation.

As this is an advisory vote, the results will not be binding upon the Board. The Board will, however, take the results of the vote into account, as appropriate, when considering future compensation policies, procedures, and decisions and in determining whether there is a need to significantly increase its engagement with Shareholders on compensation and related matters.

DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

The charter of the Board of Directors provides that the Board of Directors must at all times be constituted of a majority of individuals who are independent. Based on the information received from each Director Nominee and having taken into account the independence criteria set forth below, the Board of Directors concluded that, with the exception of Alexandre L'Heureux, all Director Nominees are independent within the meaning of the CSA Audit Committee Rules, including the Chair whose role is separate from that of the President and CEO of the Corporation.

Therefore, except for Alexandre L'Heureux, President and CEO of the Corporation, all other Director Nominees, namely Christopher Cole, Martine Ferland, Eric Lamarre, Suzanne Rancourt, Linda Smith-Galipeau, Pascale Sourisse, Macky Tall and Claude Tessier are "independent" Directors within the meaning of the CSA Audit Committee Rules in that each of them has no direct or indirect material relationship with the Corporation and, in the reasonable opinion of the Board of Directors, is independent under the applicable laws, regulations and listing requirements to which the Corporation is subject.

Name Independent Non-Independent Reason for Non-Independence
Christopher Cole
Martine Ferland
Eric Lamarre
Alexandre L'Heureux Mr. L'Heureux is the President and
CEO of the Corporation.
Suzanne Rancourt
Linda Smith-Galipeau
Pascale Sourisse
Macky Tall
Claude Tessier

The following table sets forth the relationship of the Director Nominees:

To ensure the Directors exercise independent judgment in considering transactions, agreements or decisions in respect of which a Director has a material interest, the Directors are required to disclose all actual or potential conflicts of interest and refrain from voting on such matters in accordance with applicable law. Directors are also required to excuse themselves from any discussion or decision on any matter in which they are precluded from voting as a result of a conflict of interest or which otherwise affects their personal, business or professional interests.

To facilitate the ability of the Board to function independently of Management, the following structures and processes have also been put into place:

  • no more than two employees of the Corporation can serve as Directors at any time;
  • under the by-laws of the Corporation, any one Director may call a meeting of the Board;
  • the President and CEO's compensation is considered, in his absence, by the GECC and by the Board;
  • in addition to the standing committees of the Board, independent committees may be appointed from time to time, when appropriate; and
  • the independent Directors have the opportunity to meet in camera, without any non-independent Directors or members of Management present, at the end of each Board and Committee meeting and as such, in camera sessions are included on the agenda of every meeting of the Board and its Committees.

To the knowledge of the Corporation, no director or officer of the Corporation has any existing or potential material conflicts of interest with the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, except for Mr. Macky Tall. Mr. Tall is a member of the board of directors of National Bank of Canada, a party to WSP's seventh amended and restated credit agreement dated as of April 27, 2023, as amended from time to time, among the Corporation, WSP Canada Inc., WSP USA Group Holding Inc., Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce as the administrative agent and the lenders named therein and each of the guarantors party thereto from time to time (the "Credit Agreement"), and as such Mr. Tall may have a conflicting duty towards the Corporation in connection with the Credit Agreement and shall abstain from voting for or against the approval of any changes to the Credit Agreement or any other material transaction with National Bank of Canada.

BOARD AND COMMITTEE ATTENDANCE

Each Director must have a combined attendance rate of 75% or more at Board and Committee meetings to stand for re-election unless exceptional circumstances arise such as illness, death in the family or other like circumstances, failing which such Director must tender a written offer to resign. The following table summarizes the attendance of the Directors and Committee members of the Board of Directors for the period from January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025:

Board Interlocks

In addition to the independence requirements, the Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that there shall be no more than two board interlocks at any given time. A board interlock occurs when two Directors also serve together on the board of another for-profit organization or when a Director and one of the Corporation's executive officers serve together on the board of directors of another for-profit organization. As of the date of this Circular, there are no board interlocks.

Limitations on other Board Service

The Corporation values the experience and perspective that Directors bring from their service on other boards, but also recognizes that other board memberships and activities may limit a Director's time and availability. The Corporate Governance Guidelines contain limitations on the number of other directorships that Directors and the CEO may hold. Generally, non-executive Directors should limit their service as directors on other publicly-held company boards to no more than three (3) (for a total of four (4) including the Board). Without specific approval from the Board, Directors who are also executive officers of a public company, including the Corporation's CEO, may serve on no more than one (1) other public company board (for a total of two (2) including the Board). Service on the boards of subsidiary companies with no publicly traded stock is not included in these calculations. Furthermore, no Director is permitted to serve as a director, officer or employee of a direct competitor of the Corporation. In all cases, prior to accepting an appointment to the board of directors of any company, a Director must first request the permission of the Chair of the Board. A review covering board interlocks, overboarding and independence is conducted before each such permission is granted. Should it be the Chair of the Board who wishes to join any other board of directors, then the request must be made with the Chair of the GECC.

ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURE RELATING TO DIRECTOR NOMINEES

To the knowledge of the Corporation, none of the Director Nominees are, or within ten years before the date hereof has been, a director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer of a company (including WSP) that: (i) was the subject of a cease trade or similar order, or an order that denied the relevant company access to any exemption under securities legislation that was in effect for a period of more than 30 consecutive days while the director or executive officer was acting in the capacity of director, chief executive officer, or chief financial officer, or (ii) was subject to a cease trade order or similar order, or an order that denied the relevant company access to any exemption under securities legislation that was in effect for a period of more than 30 consecutive days, that was issued after the director or executive officer ceased to be a director, chief executive officer or chief financial officer and which resulted from an event that occurred while that person was acting in that capacity.

In addition, to the knowledge of the Corporation, no Director Nominee or any of their respective personal holding companies, nor any Shareholder holding a sufficient number of securities to affect materially the control of the Corporation: (i) is, or within ten years before the date hereof has been, a director or executive officer of any company (including WSP) that, while that person was acting in that capacity, or within a year of that person ceasing to act in that capacity, became bankrupt, made a proposal under any legislation relating to bankruptcy or insolvency or was subject to or instituted any proceedings, arrangement or compromise with creditors or had a receiver, receiver manager or trustee appointed to hold its assets, or (ii) has, within ten years before the date hereof, become bankrupt, made a proposal under any legislation relating to bankruptcy or insolvency or become subject to or instituted any proceedings, arrangement or compromise with creditors, or had a receiver, receiver manager or trustee appointed to hold the assets of the director, executive officer or shareholder.

To the knowledge of the Corporation, no Director Nominee or any of their respective personal holding companies, or Shareholder holding sufficient securities of the Corporation to affect materially the control of the Corporation has (i) been subject to any penalties or sanctions imposed by a court relating to securities legislation or by a securities regulatory authority or has entered into a settlement agreement with a securities regulatory authority; or (ii) been subject to any other penalties or sanctions imposed by a court or regulatory body that would likely be considered important to a reasonable investor making an investment decision.

Director Compensation

The compensation program of the Board of Directors is designed to attract and retain highly talented and experienced directors, leading to the long-term success of the Corporation. This requires that Directors be adequately and competitively compensated. On November 6, 2024, the Board of Directors, on recommendation from the GECC, approved to maintain the 2024 compensation program for non-executive Directors for 2025.

Directors' compensation is based on a fixed annual retainer with no additional "per meeting" fees. No director compensation is paid to Directors who are employees of the Corporation. Mr. Christopher Cole continued to receive medical coverage following his transition to Chair in 2013.

The compensation of the non-executive Directors is 40% cash-based and 60% equity-based consisting of DSU awards. Directors may however, elect to receive up to 100% of their compensation in DSUs if they so wish. A Director can elect to receive up to the entire amount in cash instead of in DSUs if (i) the director is not a resident of Canada or the USA for income tax purposes and the director undertakes to purchase in the open market shares for a total value equal to approximately 60% of the total compensation representing the equity portion, or (ii) the director is otherwise exempted by the Board of Directors, upon recommendation from the GECC, when a director holds a considerable equity ownership.

No non-executive Director may receive DSUs other than those that are awarded in lieu of cash compensation for Board and committee service, on a value-for-value basis. No discretionary or other grants of DSUs are made to non-executive Directors.

In addition, the Corporation reimburses Directors for reasonable travel and out-of-pocket expenses relating to Directors' duties.

The following table displays the annual retainers for the year ended December 31, 2025 for all non-executive Directors. All Directors are paid in Canadian dollars.

Director Position Annual Retainer for 2025(1)
Chair of the Board \$595,000
Chair of the Audit Committee \$305,000
Chair of the GECC \$300,000
Member of the Audit Committee \$287,500
Member of the GECC \$282,500
Director \$270,000

(1) A non-executive Director who holds more than one position will receive the higher of the retainer amount corresponding to any of such positions such that no duplicative amount will be paid.

CHANGES TO DIRECTOR COMPENSATION IN 2026

On November 5, 2025, the Board of Directors, on recommendation from the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee, approved a revised compensation program for non-executive Directors effective as of January 1, 2026. Based on a benchmarking report from Meridian, an independent compensation advisor retained by the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee to review and provide advice regarding the Corporation's compensation practices, it was recommended to increase the compensation paid to the non-executive Directors to be within a competitive range of the median of the 2026 Peer Group and of the TSX 60 Index group of companies.

The following table displays the annual retainers, effective January 1, 2026, for all non-executive Directors. All Directors are paid in Canadian dollars.

Director Position Annual Retainer for 2026(1)
Chair of the Board \$655,000
Chair of the Audit Committee \$335,000
Chair of the GECC \$330,000
Member of the Audit Committee \$317,500
Member of the GECC \$312,500
Director \$300,000

(1) A non-executive Director who holds more than one position will receive the higher of the retainer amount corresponding to any of such positions such that no duplicative amount will be paid.

DSU PLAN

The DSU Plan was initially adopted in 2015 to allow the payment of a portion of the compensation of non-executive Directors in the form of equity-based DSUs. The DSU Plan was designed to enhance the Corporation's ability to attract and retain talented individuals to serve as members of the Board, to promote alignment of interests between the Directors and the Shareholders and to assist non-executive Directors in fulfilling the Director Share Ownership Requirements.

Unless otherwise determined, DSUs vest immediately upon being granted. However, no Director who is a holder of DSUs has any right to receive any payment under the DSU Plan until he or she ceases to be an Eligible Director (and is not at that time an employee of the Corporation) including by death, disability, retirement or resignation (a "Termination Date"). Eligible Directors receive part of their compensation in DSUs, the exact number of which is calculated by dividing the total value of the compensation to be paid through the issuance of DSUs by the Market Value of the Shares at the time of the grant.

In accordance with the terms of the DSU Plan, a Dividend Equivalent is to be computed in the form of additional DSUs calculated as of each dividend payment date in respect of which normal cash dividends are paid on the Shares and vesting on each such date, unless otherwise determined. The settlement of such additional DSUs will occur in accordance with the same terms as the underlying DSUs.

Detailed information on the DSU Plan is included in Schedule D of this Circular.

NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR SHARE OWNERSHIP REQUIREMENT

The Corporation believes that the economic interests of Directors should be aligned with those of Shareholders. The minimum share ownership requirements for non-executive Directors is set at three (3) times their total annual retainer (the "Director Share Ownership Requirement"), with such ownership requirement to be progressively achieved over a period of five (5) years from their appointment to the Board. Consequently, a non-executive Director is expected to meet 20% of the aggregate Director Share Ownership Requirement by the end of each year from their appointment (the "Director Minimum Annual Requirement") over a five-year period. The Director Share Ownership Requirement can be fulfilled through the ownership of DSUs and/or Shares.

Directors may not purchase financial instruments to hedge or offset a decrease in the market value of Shares held for the purpose of the Director Share Ownership Requirement. As the President and CEO, Alexandre L'Heureux is required to comply with the Executive Share Ownership Requirement (see section entitled "Executive Share Ownership Requirement").

The table below shows the total compensation earned by each non-executive Director as of December 31, 2025, for services rendered in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. All fees are paid in Canadian dollars. Apart from DSUs, and apart from Mr. Cole who continues to receive medical coverage following his transition to Chair in 2013, non-executive Directors do not benefit from any other equity-based awards, option-based awards, non-equity incentives, pension plan or any other form of compensation. Considering that Ms. Sourisse is not a Canadian or US resident for income tax purposes, she has elected to receive her compensation entirely in cash and has undertaken to purchase, in the open market, shares for a total value equal to approximately 60% of her total compensation, representing the equity portion that she would have received in DSUs. Mr. Cole is exempted from the requirement to receive a portion of his Director compensation in DSUs, considering his considerable equity ownership. Amounts shown are yearly but are paid quarterly.

The following descriptions of the Corporate Governance Guidelines, the Board of Directors, the Committees, and other matters reflect the Corporation's compliance with the CSA Disclosure Instrument, the CSA Governance Policy and Canadian corporate governance best practices.

The Board of Directors has approved the disclosure of the Corporation's corporate governance practices described below, on the recommendation of the GECC.

COMPOSITION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Board Size

The Board of Directors is currently comprised of nine (9) members and the Board has fixed at nine (9) the number of Directors to be elected at the Meeting, being Christopher Cole, Martine Ferland, Eric Lamarre, Alexandre L'Heureux, Suzanne Rancourt, Linda Smith-Galipeau, Pascale Sourisse, Macky Tall and Claude Tessier. All of the Director Nominees are currently members of the Board of Directors and, with the exception of Pascale Sourisse, were elected as such by the Shareholders of the Corporation at the annual meeting of Shareholders held on May 8, 2025.

Independence of Directors

The charter of the Board of Directors provides that the Board of Directors must at all times be constituted of a majority of individuals who are independent within the meaning of the CSA Audit Committee Rules. See section entitled "Director Independence" .

Board and Committee Organization

The Board of Directors and Committee meetings are generally organized as follows:

  • six regularly scheduled Board meetings each year, including a two-day meeting to consider and approve the Corporation's budget and strategy and a meeting to review and approve the Corporation's management information circular and related matters;
  • five regularly scheduled Audit Committee meetings per year;
  • six regularly scheduled GECC meetings per year;
  • special Board or Committee meetings are held when deemed necessary; and
  • members of Management and certain other key employees are regularly called upon to give presentations at the Board and Committee meetings.

The Board and the Committees each have a one-year working plan of items for discussion. These working plans are reviewed and approved at least annually to ensure that all of the matters reserved to the Board and the Committees, as well as other key issues, are discussed at the appropriate time.

The Chair of the Board sets Board agendas with the CEO and Corporate Secretary and works together with the CEO, CFO, Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Secretary to make sure that the information communicated to the Board and the Committees is accurate, timely and clear. This applies in advance of regularly scheduled meetings and, in exceptional circumstances, between these meetings. In addition, Directors are provided with Board and Committee materials electronically in advance of each meeting.

The Board reviews reports from each of the Committees and receives, from time to time, reports from members of Management, other key employees, the Corporate Secretary, as well as outside consultants as deemed necessary. The Board and the Committees may also seek independent professional advice to assist them in their duties, at the Corporation's expense.

In Camera Meetings

The Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that independent Directors should have the chance to meet in camera without non-independent Directors or management present in conjunction with every meeting of the Board or Committees, and as such, in camera sessions are included on the agenda of every meeting of the Board and its Committees. Chaired by the Chair of the Board or the chair of the applicable Committee, the in camera portion of such meetings encourages open and candid discussions among those independent Directors and provides them with an opportunity to express their views on key topics before decisions are taken. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the non-executive Directors either met or determined that it was not necessary to hold an in camera meeting following each Board, Audit Committee and GECC meeting. The independent Directors determined that it was necessary to hold five in camera sessions at the Audit Committee and five in camera sessions at the GECC, and one in camera session at the Board meetings during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. During each meeting, the independent directors are encouraged to ask questions and to challenge Management and, thanks to an open and constructive working relationship, conversations at the meetings among the independent directors are encouraged to be open and candid regardless of the presence of non-independent directors or Management. If ever there is a topic that an independent director would like to discuss in camera, they are encouraged to make use of the time allocated in the agenda for this purpose at the end of each meeting. In addition to these in camera sessions, private meetings of the Directors are held on an ad hoc basis.

Position Descriptions

The Board of Directors has developed written position descriptions for the Chair, the CEO and the Chair of each of the Audit Committee and the GECC. Summaries of the foregoing position descriptions are attached to this Circular as Schedule B, and the complete text of the position descriptions can be found on the Corporation's website at www.wsp.com. These descriptions are reviewed annually by the GECC and updates are recommended for approval by the Board as required.

Directors' Attendance Policy

The Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that each Director must have a combined attendance rate of 75% or more at Board and Committee meetings to stand for re-election, unless exceptional circumstances arise such as illness, death in the family or other similar circumstances.

Non-attendance at Board and Committee meetings is rare, and typically occurs when an unexpected commitment arises, a special meeting is convened on short notice or when there is a prior conflict with a meeting which had been scheduled and could not be rearranged. Given that Directors are provided with Board and Committee materials in advance of the meetings, Directors who are unable to attend are encouraged to provide comments and feedback to either the Chair, the chair of the relevant Committee or the Corporate Secretary, who then seek to ensure those comments and views are raised at the meeting. In addition, Directors who are unable to attend a particular meeting are encouraged to contact the Corporate Secretary as soon as practicable thereafter to be provided with an update and a briefing of discussions and resolutions passed at the meeting. See section entitled "Board and Committee Attendance".

Nomination Process and Skills Matrix

The GECC is composed entirely of independent Directors and its responsibilities include, among other things:

  • planning succession for the Board of Directors, including for the Chair of the Board of Directors and the chair of each Committee;
  • reviewing periodically the size of the Board of Directors and developing and recommending to the Board of Directors appropriate qualifications and criteria for the selection of its members;
  • identifying and recommending to the Board of Directors suitable director candidates;
  • determining the composition of the Board of Directors;
  • implementing and conducting a process to assess, on an annual basis, the effectiveness of the Board of Directors, the Committees, and the individual performance of each Director; and
  • nominating and evaluating, as well as planning succession for, the CEO and other executive officers of the Corporation.

As part of this process, to encourage an objective nomination process, the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee considers what competencies, skills and personal attributes the Board of Directors, as a whole, should possess, then assesses the skill sets and personal attributes of current Directors and identifies any additional skills sets or personal attributes deemed to be beneficial. Ultimately, candidates are assessed on their individual qualifications, breadth of experience, expertise, integrity and character, sound and independent judgment, insight and business acumen. Directors are expected to display these personal qualities and apply sound business judgment to help the Board make wise decisions and provide thoughtful and informed counsel to Management.

The Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee uses a skills matrix to identify those areas which are necessary for the Board to carry out its mandate effectively and to regularly consider board composition and anticipated board vacancies in light of its stated objectives and policies. The skills matrix was updated by the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

The following table reflects the diverse skill set of the Director Nominees and identifies the specific experience, expertise and personal attributes brought by each individual Director Nominee.

Serving on the Board of Directors

Orientation

The Board of Directors considers that orienting and educating new Directors is an important element of ensuring responsible governance and is committed to the ongoing professional development of its Directors. Suitablyoriented and educated Directors support the Board's objective to provide strategic value and oversight to the President and CEO and to Management. The Corporation's Directors Orientation Plan and Development Program (the "Orientation and Development Plan") seeks to ensure that each new Director fully understands the Corporation's governance structure, the role of the Board and the Committees, the expectations in respect of individual performance and the Corporation's operations and working environment.

Pursuant to the Orientation and Development Plan, new Directors are provided with information on the Corporation and its industry, including:

  • the history of the Corporation, its articles and by-laws;
  • the Corporation's current strategic plan and operating budget;
  • the previous years' minutes, investor relations reports, annual reports and key continuous disclosure documents of the Corporation;
  • the charters and work plans of the Board and the Committees, and the position descriptions of the CEO, the Chair, and the Chair of each Committee;
  • the current executive and director compensation programs of the Corporation, including share ownership requirements, and the Directors and Officers insurance policy;
  • the Corporation's material policies and procedures, including the Code of Conduct; and
  • information on the Corporation's business sectors and industry.

New members of the Board of Directors are also invited to attend orientation sessions with members of Management and other Directors to discuss the Corporation's business, industry, financial performance and comparative industry data, its strategic direction, key performance indicators and its current performance, challenges and opportunities, and the Corporation's major risks and risk management strategy. Within a year of the appointment of a new Director, the Chair and Corporate Secretary will meet with such Director to obtain feedback on the orientation process, determine comfort level with the Director's role, and to determine if any additional information is required by such Director.

Continuing Education

In accordance with the Orientation and Development Plan, the Board of Directors, in consultation with the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee, encourages professional development and continuing education of Directors. The development program is tailored to the specific needs, skills and competencies of the Board, the Committees and each individual Director and customized to the strategic environment of the Corporation.

The Directors' continuing education program offers training from both internal and external experts. In fact, the Corporation provides quarterly reports on the operations and finance of the Corporation to the Directors as well as analyst studies, industry studies, investor relations reports, corporate governance updates and legislative updates that are relevant to the Corporation's operations and benchmarking information. Moreover, Directors receive various presentations from Management at each regularly scheduled meeting on a variety of subjects relevant to the Corporation's business, industry, and legal or other environment, in addition to being provided with updates and short summaries of relevant information. Directors also receive presentations from external sources on a variety of topics impacting the Corporation's business and on the global economic environment. Directors are invited each year to suggest topics of interest for future external presentations, to enable them to proactively address any perceived or potential gaps in their understanding of the Corporation's business or other external factors affecting the Corporation's business. Directors are also invited to attend site visits which are generally organized on a yearly basis, as appropriate.

Documentation and selected presentations are also provided to the Directors to ensure that their knowledge and understanding of the Corporation's business remain current. Moreover, Directors are encouraged to attend seminars and other educational programs and the Corporation undertakes to assume the costs of such courses. In 2025, members of the Board and the Committees participated in the following presentations and events:

Mechanisms for Board Renewal

Term Limits and Mandatory Retirement

The Board's view is that appropriate board renewal is best achieved through regular and thoughtful assessment of directors, rather than through arbitrary term limits or mandatory retirement ages. The Corporation balances the benefits of director renewal to provide fresh ideas and viewpoints and Board skills in evolving areas of strategic importance to the Corporation with the insight, experience and other benefits of continuity contributed by longer serving Directors. As such, the Board has determined that the tenure of Directors will not be subject to a mandatory retirement age or a maximum term limit.

To provide for adequate board renewal, Directors engage in a robust Board, Committee and self-evaluation process as further described below, the results of which are used to assess the performance of the Board and determine, among others, improvements to Board composition. The Board has demonstrated the effectiveness of its approach as a mechanism for Board renewal as only one (1) Director out of the nine (9) Director Nominees has been on the Board for more than ten (10) years and five (5) out of the nine (9) Director Nominees, representing over 50% of the Director Nominees, have been on the Board for less than three (3) years. Further, with a mix of longer serving Directors and more recent Directors, the Board believes that it has struck the right balance between preserving its institutional memory and welcoming fresh perspectives to continue to navigate challenges effectively in an ever-evolving market.

Assessments

The Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee is responsible for developing a process to assess the effectiveness of the Board, its Committees, each chair and the directors. The GECC also considers on a periodic basis the appropriateness of conducting a review through an independent advisor or involving an independent advisor in the Board assessment process. In 2023, the Board, on recommendation from the GECC, engaged an independent advisor to advise it on the evaluation process, including performing a review of the evaluation questionnaires as well as the steps of the process. The objective of the assessments is to ensure the continued effectiveness of the Board in the execution of its responsibilities, the continued effectiveness of individual Board members and to contribute to a process of continuing improvement. The process is further described in the table below.

Action Item Board and Committee Evaluation Director Self-Evaluation
Cadence Annual Annual
Assessments Each director and select members of management completes a
separate detailed assessment to evaluate the Board and each
Committee.
Each director also completes a separate assessment of the Chair
of the Board and of each Committee.
Topics covered include, among others:

Board and committee structure, size, composition, skills,
and succession planning.

The effectiveness of the Board, Committees, Board and
Committee chairs.

Board strategy and operational oversight.

Board culture and dynamics, including the effectiveness of
discussion and debate at Board and Committee meetings.

The quality of Board and Committee agendas, meeting
length, and presentations.

The appropriateness of Board and Committee priorities.

Board interactions with management, including the quality
of meeting materials and the information provided to the
Board and Committees.
Each director completes a separate self-evaluation questionnaire
which includes the following topics:

Skills

Knowledge

Experience

Contribution

Performance
Reporting The results of the assessments are processed as follows:

The responses are consolidated on a "no name basis" and
provided to the Chair of the Board (except for the
evaluation of the Chair of the Board which is provided to
the Chair of the GECC).

Each director participates in a confidential, open-ended,
one-on-one interview with the Chair of the Board to (i)
discuss the results of the assessments regarding Board
and Committee performance, and (ii) solicit input on the
performance and effectiveness of the Board and
Committees, as well as to receive feedback on peer
performance (except the Chair of the Board, who meets
with the Chair of the GECC).

A report from the Chair of the Board summarizing the
results of the evaluation process is then provided to the
Board of Directors and time is set aside at a meeting of the
Board for round-table discussions on key topics.
The results of the assessments are processed as follows:

The responses are collected confidentially and anonymously
by the Corporate Secretary of WSP and only provided to the
Chair of the Board in advance of the one-on-one meetings
(except for the evaluation of the Chair of the Board which is
provided to the Chair of the GECC).

Each director participates in a confidential, open-ended,
one-on-one interview with the Chair of the Board to discuss
the results of the self-evaluation and provide feedback
(except for the evaluation of the Chair of the Board which is
conducted by the Chair of the GECC).
Action Planning Following reporting and discussions, an action plan, including
applicable timeline, is developed and shared with the Board by no
later than the next meeting.
These evaluations have consistently found that the Board and its
Committees are operating effectively. Over the years, they have
also allowed to identify areas of improvement to increase Board
effectiveness.
These evaluations have consistently identified development
opportunities for Directors.
They have also found that each Director:

Demonstrates a commitment to the Corporation's core
values.

Participates actively and constructively in, and is well
prepared for, Board and committee meetings.

Exercises independent judgment when considering issues
before the Board and Committees.

Seeks opportunities to proactively strengthen their
understanding of their role as a director and is open to
ongoing training and constructive feedback.

Brings functional expertise to the Board to augment
management's thinking and development.

ROLE AND DUTIES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND ITS COMMITTEES

Board Mandate

The Board of Directors is responsible for the stewardship of the Corporation. To carry out this role, the Board oversees the conduct, direction, and results of the Corporation's business. In turn, Management is mandated to conduct the day-to-day business and affairs of the Corporation and is responsible for implementing the strategies, goals, and directions approved by the Board.

The duties and responsibilities of the Board are to supervise the management of the business and affairs of the Corporation and to act with a view towards the best interests of the Corporation. In discharging its mandate, the Board is responsible for the oversight and review of the development or approval of, among other things, the following matters:

  • the strategic planning process of the Corporation;
  • a strategic plan for the Corporation that takes into consideration, among other things, the longer-term opportunities and risks of the business;
  • annual capital and operating budgets that support the Corporation's ability to meet its strategic objectives;
  • all significant decisions outside of the ordinary course of the Corporation's business, including major financings and material acquisitions and divestitures;
  • succession planning, including the appointment of the CEO and CFO;
  • the implementation, review of and compliance with the Corporation's material policies;
  • communications policies for the Corporation to facilitate communications with investors, other interested parties and the investment community more generally;
  • a reporting system that accurately measures the Corporation's performance against its strategic plan; and
  • the integrity of the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting, management information systems, disclosure control and procedures, and financial disclosure.

The Board also has the responsibility of managing the risks to the Corporation's business and must:

  • confirm that Management identifies the principal risks of the Corporation's business and implements appropriate systems to manage these risks; and
  • evaluate and assess information provided by Management and others about the effectiveness of the Corporation's risk management systems.

The Board also has the mandate to assess the effectiveness of the Board as a whole, the Committees and the contribution of individual Directors.

The Board discharges its responsibilities directly and through its Committees, currently consisting of the Audit Committee and the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee.

The Board of Directors has adopted a written charter which sets out, among other things, its role and responsibilities. The charter of the Board of Directors, as may be amended from time to time, is attached as Schedule A of this Circular.

Committees of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors has an Audit Committee and a Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee.

Board of Directors and Senior Management Appointments

Required Diversity Disclosure under the Canada Business Corporations Act and the CSA Disclosure Instrument

Written Policies

The Corporation has written policies in place relating to the identification and nomination of members of Designated Groups in Board and in executive officer nominations1 . The Corporation's search for and selection of candidates is first and foremost based on merit and objective criteria. The Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that, when identifying candidates to nominate for election to the Board or in its review of executive officer1 appointments, the GECC will:

  • consider individuals who are highly qualified, based on their talents, experience, functional expertise and personal skills, character and qualities having regards to the Corporation's current and future plans and objectives, as well as anticipated regulatory and market developments;
  • to the extent permissible under local laws and data protection restrictions, while maintaining our commitment to a merit-based approach, consider the level of representation of women on the Board and in executive officer positions along with other markers of diversity when making recommendations for nominees to the Board or for appointment as executive officers and in general with regard to succession planning for the Board and executive officers; and
  • as required, engage qualified independent external advisors to assist the Board in conducting its search for candidates that meet the Board's criteria regarding skills, experience and, to the extent permissible under local laws and data protection restrictions, gender balance and diversity, and when doing so to the extent legally permissible, mandate such advisors to ensure that a balance of diverse candidates are included.

The GECC, in its periodic review of the composition of the Board and executive officer appointments, assesses the effectiveness of the Board and senior management nomination process in achieving the Corporation's objectives highlighted above.

The Corporate Governance Guidelines are available on the Corporation's website at www.wsp.com.

Targets

WSP Global Inc. has adopted a Board of Directors' composition target providing that women and men will each represent at least 30% of the Board of Directors, while continuing to ensure optimal representation of skills and expertise to help serve the Corporation's best interests. This target has been met as 44.44% of WSP's Board members are women and 55.56% are men. The Corporation has not adopted a specific target for the representation of Indigenous peoples, persons with disabilities and members of visible minorities (together with women, the "Designated Groups") but rather, when engaging independent external advisors to assist in conducting a search for potential director candidates, the GECC shall mandate such advisors, to the extent permissible under local laws and data protection restrictions, to ensure that a balance of diverse candidates are included.

The Corporation has not adopted a specific target in 2025 for the representation of the Designated Groups among senior management. The Corporation promotes merit-based practices in its talent acquisition, awareness, learning, career development and recognition initiatives, while aiming to provide a work environment in which all individuals are treated with dignity and respect, free from any discrimination. The global focus continues to provide emphasis on development and leadership opportunities for all employees, applied equally. We believe that our current initiatives and processes will continue to be effective in fostering an inclusive work environment where everyone can be empowered to reach their full potential – a key focus area of our 2025-2027 Global Strategic Action Plan.

Strategic Planning

The Board participates directly or through its Committees in developing and approving the mission of the Corporation's business, its objectives and goals and the strategy for their achievement.

Management is responsible for developing a strategic plan for the Corporation, which it presents to the Board each year either for approval or to update the Directors on progress on the existing strategic plan, as the case may be. At least one meeting is scheduled annually to discuss strategic matters such as corporate opportunities and the main risks faced by the Corporation's business and to consider and approve, as applicable, the Corporation's strategic plan for the next few years. The implementation of corporate strategy and important strategic issues are reviewed and discussed regularly at Board meetings, and Management presents any important changes in strategy to the Board as the need arises throughout the year. Furthermore, the Board oversees the implementation of the strategic plan and monitors the Corporation's performance against the strategic plan.

ETHICAL BUSINESS BEHAVIOUR AND CODE OF CONDUCT

Sound, ethical business practices are fundamental to the Corporation's business. The Corporation has a Code of Conduct and ancillary policies related to ethical business practices, including an Anti-Corruption Policy, a Fair Competition Policy, a Gifts, Entertainment and Hospitality Policy, a Reporting, Investigations, and Anti-Retaliation Policy, a Business Partner Code of Conduct and a Human Rights Policy (collectively, the "Code"). The Code applies to the Corporation's Directors and officers, employees and independent contractors. The Code requires strict compliance with legal requirements and sets the Corporation's standards for ethical business conduct. Topics addressed in the Code include, among others, business integrity, conflicts of interest, insider trading, use of corporate assets, fraudulent or dishonest activities, human rights, personal and confidential information, fair competition, employment policies, anti-retaliation policy, and reporting suspected non-compliance with the Code.

The Code is introduced by way of an ongoing structured training and communications program. This ensures that the Corporation's Directors and officers, employees and independent contractors understand and agree to comply with these requirements. Training is notably aimed at recognizing issues and escalating them in the organization for effective measures to be implemented in a timely fashion. As for new hires, the training has been incorporated into the induction process. The Corporation additionally requires that all employees complete an annual refresher training and provides specialized training sessions for specific employees, where it is determined that such training would be beneficial. The Directors receive an annual training on ethical business conduct.

The Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee has the responsibility to review, report and, when appropriate, make recommendations to the Board with respect to the Corporation's policies, programs and practices relating to business conduct and ethics, including the Code , including reviewing any significant breaches or complaints reported thereunder. The Code of Conduct is regularly reviewed and updated and the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee receives reports on this process, on an annual basis, which includes any proposed amendments to the Code of Conduct, for review and recommendation to the Board for approval. Following an audit of WSP's ethics and compliance program conducted by Ethisphere® Institute, a global leader in defining and advancing the standards of ethical business practices, WSP was re-awarded with the Compliance Leader Verification certification for 2025-2026, which attests to the quality of the Corporation's ethics program.

The Code of Conduct provides that each of the Corporation's Directors and officers, employees and independent contractors has an obligation to report violations or suspected violations of the Code of Conduct. In addition, the Corporation's Business Conduct Hotline provides a means to raise issues of concern confidentially and anonymously with a third-party service provider. The Chair of the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee or of the Audit Committee are advised of any significant breaches or complaints, as applicable.

Pursuant to the Code, employees, Directors and officers must avoid real, apparent or potential conflict of interest situations. Any actual or potential conflict of interest must be promptly reported and recorded in the Corporation's conflict of interest registry. Directors sign an annual certification to the Code of Conduct which includes a disclosure of any actual or potential conflict of interest.

The Code of Conduct is available on the Corporation's website at www.wsp.com and on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Audit Committee has adopted Guidelines for the Review of Related Party Transactions which provide a process for the identification, review and approval of related party transactions. Under these guidelines, a related party must disclose to the Chief Legal Officer, in a timely manner, any potential related party transaction that he or she might be involved in. The Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing and approving related party transactions and for reporting all related party transactions to the Board. No Director may participate in the approval or ratification of a related party transaction in which he or she is or will be a related party. The Audit Committee may also hire external advisors to assist in their review. For material related party transactions, the Board of Directors may establish a special committee of independent directors to review the potential transaction and such committee may retain external independent advisors to assist in their review. No such special committee was created in 2025.

In addition, each Director and executive officer must complete a questionnaire, on an annual basis, providing sufficient disclosure in identifying possible related party transactions.

RISK OVERSIGHT

The Board is entrusted with the ultimate responsibility of identifying and assessing the principal risks of the Corporation's business, and the implementation of appropriate systems to manage these risks. While the Board has overall responsibility for risk, it carries out its risk management mandate primarily through the Audit Committee, but also through the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee, in order to ensure that they are treated with appropriate expertise, attention and diligence, with reporting to the Board on a regular basis.

The Audit Committee's role is to review, report and, where appropriate, provide recommendations to the Board on: (i) the Corporation's processes for identifying, assessing, monitoring and managing risks, including following the evolution of emerging risks; and (ii) the Corporation's major financial risk exposures and the steps taken to monitor and control such exposures. The Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee oversees the identification and management of risks associated with the Corporation's compensation policies and practices, and works with the Corporation to assess sustainability matters that are significant to the Corporation, including risks and opportunities as well as emerging best corporate governance practices. Risk information is reviewed by the Board or the relevant Committee throughout the year, and business leaders present regular updates on the execution of business strategies, risks and mitigation.

The Corporation's risk management function acts as a second line of defense, which ensures WSP's present and future key risks are identified adequately and in a timely manner, mitigated and monitored to support the successful achievement of our operational objectives, our business strategy and continuous growth. It provides a standardized risk management framework with its established Enterprise Risk Management ("ERM") program and takes an active role in the operationalization of risk management by establishing best practices and processes as well as providing guidelines, tools and training to the operations. It also supports the global operational performance team to provide a risk-based framework to identify and monitor projects at risk throughout the organization in order to ensure adequate mitigation measures are in place. The risk management function also supports the establishment of the Corporation's governance across its core activities and acts as a risk advisor to key stakeholders.

The Corporation continues to evolve its ERM program, which provides the operations a standardized risk assessment approach and methodology to identify, assess and monitor their risks based on specific controls assessments and key risk indicators. The ERM program also provides a structure to articulate and document mitigation measures established for each risk being assessed. ERM assessments are performed on key risks on a semi-annual basis by the business, validated by global risk owners and consolidated globally for reporting to the Audit Committee.

The Audit Committee is not involved in the day-to-day risk management activities; rather, it is responsible for overseeing the establishment and continuous evolution of the global ERM framework and operational risk management practices to allow Management to adequately and timely bring to the Board's attention the Corporation's key risks.

Cybersecurity, Artificial Intelligence and Other Emerging Technologies Risk Oversight

Information technology and cybersecurity risks continue to be key risks for the Corporation, and the corporate world in general, as the volume and sophistication of cyberattacks have increased in recent years. WSP has a comprehensive information security framework that has been designed to protect our organization from cyber and information security threats. The cornerstone of this framework is our ISO27001 and NIST ST 800-53 aligned information security policy and standards. Our IT operations are fully certified to the ISO27001 standard, including our Global Security Operations Centre, which is responsible for the technical controls that protect our systems and ensuring that cyber security threats are identified, assessed and managed.

To provide assurance over the cyber security controls in place, we utilize third parties to monitor our external attack surface, and to undertake a penetration test on a minimum annual basis. We also conduct comprehensive cyber risk assessments on new system implementations, major technology changes, business acquisitions and integrations and continually monitor the third parties we work with. We have developed strategies intended to seek to mitigate the Corporation's risks, including through security trainings for all employees to increase awareness of potential cyber threats.

At the Board level, the Audit Committee oversees our cybersecurity strategy, monitors the progress of our action plans and reports back to the Board of Directors. The Audit Committee receives specific reports from Management on our cyber-related risks and strategy and on the results of the Corporation's cybersecurity framework maturity assessments. The digital transformation and the adoption of emerging technologies, such as agentic and generative artificial intelligence (AI), require continued focus and investment. The Corporation is investing in digital and AI transformation services, including by concluding strategic partnerships with technology partners, as described in its 2025-2027 Global Strategic Action Plan. While not adopting such technologies could be a threat to the Corporation's ability to adapt and evolve in its competitive markets, the adoption of such technologies poses certain risks, such as data loss, hallucination (AI services unknowingly providing false information), loss of intellectual property rights or unintentional property infringement . WSP has adopted an artificial intelligence policy that sets out the Corporation's AI principles for developing and using AI at WSP, in line with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development's AI principles. The Corporation has also developed a risk matrix for the development and use of AI at WSP, in accordance with its AI policy, and a governance process to facilitate innovation while mitigating risks. WSP has also developed initiatives to provide AI literacy to its employees, including guidance and basic awareness training. WSP's approach aims to ensure we protect our IP, data, and clients by embedding strong governance, compliance by design, and disciplined oversight across all AI use. This foundation is intended to safeguard our business while enabling responsible adoption at scale. The Board is responsible for overseeing the digital transformation of WSP, including how it is leveraging AI, while the Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing AI risks and reporting to the Board.

For a detailed explanation of the material risks applicable to the Corporation and its subsidiaries, including cyberrelated, artificial intelligence and emerging technology risks, see section 20 (Risk Factors) of the Corporation's management's discussion and analysis for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2025 available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

SHAREHOLDER ENGAGEMENT

Reaching out to stakeholders and listening to their opinions and feedback is an important value of the Corporation and is crucial in understanding their concerns and sentiment. We believe that regular, transparent communication is essential to WSP's long-term success to ensure that our approach to corporate governance is a dynamic framework that can accommodate the evolving demands of a changing business environment and remain responsive to the priorities of our shareholders and other stakeholders. The Board seeks to engage, primarily through its Chair, Chair of the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee, CEO, CFO, Chief Legal Officer, and Corporate Secretary, in ongoing constructive dialogue with Shareholders and other stakeholders on a wide range of topics, including executive compensation and governance matters.

The Corporation engages with Shareholders through a variety of channels facilitated by our Head of Investor Relations, including the Corporation's website at www.wsp.com, quarterly conference calls, individual investor meetings (see section entitled "Individual Investor Meetings" below for additional details), and periodic investor day meetings or similar events (breakfasts, site visits, virtual conferences) (see section entitled "Investor Days and Related Events" below for additional details).

In 2025, we maintained a robust calendar of virtual and in-person events to ensure we remain engaged with our shareholders.

Shareholders may also communicate directly with members of the Board, including the Chair, through the Corporate Secretary (being the Board's designated agent to receive and review communications addressed to it or to an individual Director), by directing communications by mail to WSP Global Inc., c/o Corporate Secretary, 1600 René-Lévesque Blvd. West, 11th Floor, Montréal, Québec, Canada, H3H 1P9, marking the envelope "Confidential". All topics that are appropriate for the Board to address will be forwarded to the indicated addressee.

The Chair and other Directors can answer Shareholders' questions at the Meeting and at any other meeting of Shareholders.

Individual Investor Meetings

In 2025 and early 2026, the Corporation proactively reached out to its institutional Shareholders globally, representing over 60% of the issued and outstanding Shares as of December 31, 2025, and met with them individually to discuss and solicit their feedback on various topics, including the Corporation's strategic journey, its corporate governance practices, executive compensation, sustainability, and human capital matters. Our CFO, Chief Legal Officer, Global Director, Earth and Environment (who is also the Global Sponsor, Sustainability), Corporate Secretary, Head of Investor Relations and other members of Management participated in these efforts on behalf of the Corporation. The input received as a result of these discussions were communicated to the Board and its Committees so that they can be considered in the Board's deliberations and decision-making. The engagements of current and prior years have contributed to enhancing the Corporation's sustainability program, corporate governance and disclosure activities, and the Board is committed to continuing these meaningful discussions.

Investor Days and Related Events

The Corporation holds "investor days" or similar events (breakfasts, site visits, virtual conferences, presentations by the Corporation's senior officers, quarterly earnings and acquisition-specific calls and other meetings, etc.) on a periodic basis at which Management can exchange with analysts, Shareholders and other stakeholders of the Corporation. On February 12, 2025, the Corporation hosted a hybrid Investor Day in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, coinciding with the launch of its 2025–2027 Global Strategic Action Plan.

During these meetings, Management provides an update to analysts, Shareholders and other stakeholders on the Corporation's operations, performance and outlook while making sure to respect its disclosure obligations and avoid any selective disclosure. These meetings also provide analysts, Shareholders and stakeholders with the opportunity to raise questions and concerns to Management regarding the Corporation's business and affairs. Feedback from Shareholders comes from one-on-one or group meetings, in addition to regular interactions on specific questions between the Corporation's Head of Investor Relations and Shareholders. Investor relations conferences, and results conference calls are broadcasted live through the website of the Corporation at www.wsp.com. Materials from results conference calls as well as transcripts of the calls are archived and available on the website of the Corporation at www.wsp.com.

Continuous Disclosure and Disclosure Policy

The Corporation has adopted a Public Disclosure Policy to provide guidelines with respect to the dissemination and disclosure of information to the investment community and Shareholders. The objectives of the Public Disclosure Policy seek to ensure that communications are timely, informative, factual, balanced, accurate, complete and broadly disseminated in accordance with applicable legislation, and sound disclosure practices which maintain the confidence of the investment community, including investors, in the integrity of the Corporation's information.

Sound disclosure practices are the most valuable means of communicating with Shareholders, and the Corporation believes that through its annual and ad hoc disclosure documents, including, among others, this Circular, the Corporation's financial statements and accompanying management's discussion and analysis, AIF, annual report, quarterly interim reports and conference calls, periodic press releases, as well as the Corporation's website and Sustainability Report, it effectively communicates its commitment to not only meet but exceed governance standards, whether they are imposed by legislation or encouraged as best practices. The Corporation is committed to providing timely, accurate, and balanced disclosure of material information consistent with legal and regulatory requirements.

The Corporation has established a public disclosure committee to support the CEO and CFO in making annual and quarterly certifications, identifying material information and determining how and when to disclose that material information and to seek to ensure that all material disclosures comply with relevant securities legislation. The public disclosure committee is composed of the CFO (who also serves as the Chair of the committee), the Chief Legal Officer, the Head of Investor Relations, the Chief Accounting Officer and the Chief Communications Officer of the Corporation. The public disclosure committee is responsible for reviewing and evaluating disclosures and potential disclosures prior to the release of the Corporation's quarterly, annual and other disclosure documents. Other members of Management are invited to participate in the meetings of the public disclosure committee. Dissemination to the public of material information, both financial and non-financial, which was previously undisclosed, must be reviewed and approved in advance by the public disclosure committee.

The Public Disclosure Policy is available on the Corporation's website at www.wsp.com.

Say on Pay

The Corporation has adopted a "say on pay" policy, the purpose of which is to provide appropriate Director accountability to the Shareholders for the Board's compensation decisions, by giving Shareholders a formal opportunity on an annual basis to provide their views on the disclosed objectives of the executive compensation plans of the Corporation and on the plans themselves.

The Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee carefully considers Shareholder feedback on the Corporation's executive compensation programs and works to continue the design and implementation of compensation programs that promote the creation of Shareholder value and further our executive compensation philosophy.

As this is an advisory vote, the results are not binding upon the Board; however, the Board will take the results of the vote into account, as appropriate, when considering future compensation policies, procedures, and decisions and in determining whether there is a need to significantly increase their engagement with Shareholders on compensation and related matters. The Corporation discloses the results of the Shareholder non-binding advisory vote as part of its report on voting results and related press release to be posted on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on the Corporation's website at www.wsp.com. The Board discloses to Shareholders, no later than in the management information circular for its next annual meeting, the changes to the compensation plans made or to be made (or why no such changes were made) by the Board as a result of its engagement with Shareholders. In the event that a significant number of Shareholders oppose the resolution, the Board will consult with its Shareholders, particularly those who are known to have voted against it, in order to understand their concerns and will review the Corporation's approach to compensation in the context of those concerns. Shareholders who have voted against the resolution will be encouraged to contact the Board to discuss their specific concerns.

At the annual and special meeting of Shareholders held on May 8, 2025, the Corporation's approach to executive compensation was approved by 96.29% of the Shares voted on the non-binding, advisory resolution on executive compensation. The Board and the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee greatly value the Shareholder feedback on executive compensation and, after considering the 2025 results, worked to continue the design and implementation of compensation programs that promote the creation of Shareholder value and align with our executive compensation philosophy.

The "say on pay" policy (Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation) is available on the Corporation's website at www.wsp.com.

SUSTAINABILITY GOVERNANCE

WSP oversees sustainability matters from the highest levels of its organization. WSP's Sustainability Statement, reviewed regularly and last updated in November 2025, and its Global Sustainability Report, published on an annual basis, are both available on the Corporation's website at www.wsp.com. Information contained in or otherwise accessible through the Corporation's website does not form part of this Circular, and is not incorporated into this Circular by reference, and we disclaim any such incorporation by reference.

Governance and Oversight of the Global Sustainability Program

WSP's Board of Directors, together with the GECC, is responsible for overseeing and monitoring the Corporation's implementation of procedures, policies and initiatives relating to sustainability. The GECC Charter sets out its duties and responsibilities with respect to sustainability. Oversight responsibility for sustainability at the Board level is assigned to the Chair of the GECC, Linda Smith-Galipeau, who possesses advanced experience in the area of environmental, social and human capital matters. In this capacity, Ms. Smith-Galipeau has responsibility for overseeing the Corporation's sustainability goals, commitments, risks and opportunities, and acts as the Board liaison to senior management on sustainability matters. The sustainability program articulates strategies to identify and manage material sustainability-related risks and opportunities, and aims to implement mitigation measures, such as greenhouse gas emissions reduction plans. Updates on sustainability matters are provided to the GECC on a quarterly basis.

In addition, the Audit Committee is mandated to review the internal control and data verification process for reporting of data on sustainability matters.

Sustainability Reporting

WSP's approach to communicating its sustainability-related performance is guided by the recommendations contained in recognized frameworks, and these frameworks also support the Corporation's constant efforts to evaluate, monitor and improve its strategies.

In its 2024 Global Sustainability Report, WSP reports on its sustainability performance with reference to the Global Reporting Initiative 2021 Standards. The report also contains metrics recommended in the Engineering & Construction and Professional Services standards developed by the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board.

WSP reports on its climate- and nature-related risks and opportunities in its Climate and Nature Transition Plan, which is guided by and prepared with reference to the disclosure recommendations contained in, among others, the IFRS Transition Plan Taskforce , the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures and the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures .

WSP reports on the steps it has taken to prevent and reduce the risk that forced or child labour is used in its own operations, as well as in its supply chain in its Modern Slavery Report.

The Corporation's 2024 Global Sustainability Report, Climate and Nature Transition Plan and 2024 Modern Slavery Report are available on its website at www.wsp.com.

Additionally, the Corporation is preparing for future reporting requirements under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive and International Sustainability Standards Board , as well as other emerging sustainabilityrelated regulations. As part of this preparation, since 2023, the Corporation has conducted an annual double materiality assessment, which evaluated sustainability topics in terms of their potential material financial effects on the Corporation, as well as the Corporation's potential material impacts on people and/or the environment.

WSP is a signatory to the United Nations Global Compact and has committed to implementing the Ten Principles on human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption, and to contributing to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals ("SDGs"). WSP has reported on progress related to this commitment since 2020. Many of the Corporation's projects in areas such as urban mobility, decarbonization or water contribute directly to the SDGs.

Engaging with stakeholders to discuss strategy and progress is an important part of WSP's sustainability program. This involves regular engagement and open dialogue with Shareholders, including presentations at investor conferences. Feedback from investors is considered to enhance the Corporation's sustainability program and reporting and is communicated to the Board and its Committees so that it can be considered in the Board's deliberations and decision-making.

Environmental

The Corporation's environmental program has two intersecting dimensions. The first is linked to how WSP works with its clients, as it seeks to embed sustainability in its services and advice, using its Future Ready®2 approach. The second is tied to its operations and how they impact the communities in which the Corporation operates. Actions to reduce GHG emissions are core to both these efforts.

The Corporation established science-based GHG emissions reduction targets that were certified by the Science-Based Targets initiative in April 2021. The Corporation also committed to achieving net zero emissions across its value chain by 2040, and this target was approved by the Science-Based Targets initiative under its Corporate Net-Zero Standard in 2022. Details on how the Corporation aims to achieve those targets is available in its Climate and Nature Transition Plan, which is available on the Corporation's website at www.wsp.com.

In addition to decreasing its own emissions, WSP is committed to contributing to the transition to a low-carbon economy through its professional services. To this end, the Corporation is committed to better understanding the GHG emissions associated with its project advice and designs and collaborating with clients and partners to drive emissions reductions. Our capabilities in the UK and Australia were certified to the British Standards Institution's PAS2080:2030 carbon management for buildings and infrastructure standard.

Future Ready®

As provided in its Sustainability Statement, WSP is focused on embedding sustainability considerations throughout its operations and supply chain, and on maintaining an industry-leading, data-driven program by leveraging its Future Ready® mindset. This is especially important, as many of WSP's client projects have design lives spanning decades. Future Ready® is WSP's innovative global program, challenging and inspiring our people to advise and design programs ready for the future as well as today. The program provides the basis for WSP's thought leadership on the collective challenges the world faces.

In 2025, WSP continued to design and advice on a multitude of Future Ready® projects across the global business. WSP published research on a variety of topics including biodiversity, energy transition, water availability and Future Ready® buildings.

HUMAN CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

Oversight of Human Capital Management

The Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee has oversight responsibility to review the Corporation's health, safety, environment & quality, human capital management, well-being, inclusion and belonging policies, practices and initiatives and to review the succession plans relating to the positions of CEO and other executive officers. To this end, the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee receives regular reports from the Chief Human Resources Officer on topics such as Global and regional inclusion and belonging and well-being programs and initiatives, talent management and succession planning process, people programs and initiatives as well as employee engagement activities. In addition, the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee receives quarterly reports on health, safety, environment & quality programs and initiatives.

Health, Safety, Environment and Quality

The Corporation's vision is that Health (H), Safety (S), Environment (E) and Quality (Q) (collectively, "HSEQ") excellence are an integral part of the WSP culture. In 2022, we began to work towards a HSEQ management system that is compliant with the internationally recognized HSEQ standards ISO 45001:2018, ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 9001:2015. WSP has a Global HSEQ management system manual, which is intended to enable us to ensure that WSP has a consistent, robust, high-quality HSEQ management practice, implemented throughout the organization.

Currently, WSP has third-party certification to ISO 45001:2018, ISO 14001:2015 and/or ISO 9001:2015 at country, regional or local levels, achieved through independent assessments conducted by approved external certifying bodies. WSP has commenced the journey to Global ISO certification, through our Global HSEQ management system. While not all WSP locations have certification at this time, they still must meet and be compliant with the applicable requirements.

Our HSEQ framework includes a Global HSEQ management system manual, which includes Health & Safety, Environment and Quality processes and procedures.

The Corporation's Global Health and Safety Policy, Global Environmental Policy, and Global Quality Policy are available on its website at www.wsp.com.

Career Development and Succession Planning

The Board of Directors is responsible for seeking to ensure that the Corporation is supported by an appropriate organizational structure, including a President and CEO and other executives who have complementary skills and expertise to provide for the sound management of the business and affairs of the Corporation and its long-term profitability.

The Board of Directors has delegated to the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee the responsibility to advise the Board and Management in relation to its succession planning, including the appointment and monitoring of senior Management. Succession planning is reviewed annually to facilitate talent renewal and smooth leadership transitions for key strategic roles, support leadership development, to identify areas of improvement and invest in strategic hiring.

The Corporation reviews annually its succession plan for the President and CEO and other key members of senior Management. The Corporation maintains a succession plan for the CEO and each critical position, that considers various time horizons, with potential internal succession as "ready now", "short-term ready within up to five years", "long-term ready in more than five years", plus "emergency" plan for short-term absences. For the President and CEO role, the contingency exercise plans for both a temporary replacement scenario as well as a permanent replacement scenario following a departure without material notice. The succession plan fits into the Corporation's overall talent management framework and is the subject of an increased focus by Management, the Board and the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee.

The Corporation believes that developing the capabilities of our employees is integral to delivering long-term value. Our human capital management practices are designed to provide opportunities for employees to learn, innovate and develop both their technical and leadership capabilities at every stage of their career.

Compensation Discussion & Analysis

LETTER FROM THE CHAIR OF THE GOVERNANCE, ETHICS AND COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Linda Smith-Galipeau, MBA

The Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee is pleased to provide you with an overview of the Corporation's executive compensation program for 2025. We provide transparent disclosure of all facets of our executive pay programs in this Compensation Discussion & Analysis. Our compensation framework and compensation outcomes are directly linked to the performance of the Corporation and to value creation for our Shareholders. While this philosophy remains consistent with previous years, the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee reviews annually all elements of executive compensation so that it continues to be aligned with the Corporation's business strategy and that it attracts, retains and incentivizes talent.

People are the driving force behind WSP's long-term success, and our approach reflects this. We remain committed to fostering an environment where employees can grow, contribute meaningfully, and realize their full potential. In line with our ambition to be recognized as the preferred home for engineers, scientists and advisors, we seek to hire, develop and support individuals who can deliver high-impact outcomes for clients and communities worldwide, while ensuring they are aligned with—and can benefit from—the value they help generate through our executive compensation program.

We welcome this opportunity to receive Shareholder feedback on our approach to executive compensation which we believe is valuable for continued transparency, accountability and the strengthening of our corporate governance.

Linking Pay and Performance

In the year ended December 31, 2025, the Corporation delivered net revenues and adjusted EBITDA at or exceeding the high end of Management's revised outlook(1) ranges for these metrics, driven by both organic growth and acquisition growth. The year was also marked by historical record level free cash flow. Revenues and net revenues(2) increased by 13.1% and 14.7%, respectively, compared to 2024, growing to \$18.29 billion and \$13.96 billion, respectively, with net revenue reaching the high end of Management's revised outlook range for the year of \$13.80 billion to \$14.00 billion. Adjusted EBITDA(3) grew to \$2.561 billion, up 17.2%, compared to \$2.186 billion in 2024, exceeding the high end of Management's revised outlook range for the year, which stood at \$2.540 billion to \$2.560 billion. Earnings before net financing expense and income taxes ("EBIT") stood at \$1.53 billion, up 20.8% compared to 2024, mainly due to higher adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted net earnings(3) of \$1.25 billion, or \$9.58 per share(4) , increased by 23.3% and 19.0%, respectively, compared to 2024, while net earnings attributable to shareholders reached \$964.3 million, or \$7.38 per share, increasing 41.5% and 36.7%, respectively compared to 2024. Cash flows from operations remained strong and free cash flow(3) nearly doubled compared to the prior year.

For more information on WSP's performance, we invite you to review the Corporation's annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 and management's discussion & analysis for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2025, which are available on the Corporation's website at www.wsp.com and on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

In 2025, WSP completed three strategic acquisitions, namely Ricardo, Lexica and Harmonic Analytics, and announced the milestone acquisition of TRC, which has since closed.

Compensation of NEOs and other executives in 2025 was closely tied to the performance of the Corporation through:

  • the Short Term Incentive Plan (STIP), which pays out in cash on the basis of performance targets focused on consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for STIP Purposes and Adjusted EBITDA by Segment for STIP Purposes, Net Revenue for STIP Purposes, Free Cash Flow for STIP Purposes, Operating Profit for STIP Purposes and Acquisition Growth for STIP Purposes performance, with a strategic performance multiplier; and
  • the Long Term Incentive Program through grants of PSUs which vest on the basis of Adjusted EPS Growth and relative TSR, and grants of RSUs which directly track our share price.

In addition, in 2025, the Corporation allowed certain senior executives to elect to receive a portion or all of their STIP in DSUs, increasing the long-term alignment of their interests with those of our Shareholders. Furthermore, the Corporation's Share Unit Plan allows participants to settle their vested Redeemable PSUs and Redeemable RSUs in cash or Shares and to defer their settlement for up to a 10-year term, increasing alignment with longer term focus and wealth creation tied to WSP.

In 2025, we maintained a basket of strategic performance measures aligned with our business strategy in the form of a multiplier (90% to 110%) on our STIP financial performance metrics. These metrics were set at the end of 2024 and cover five areas of strategic importance for WSP.

Ambitious STIP targets for 2025 were set at the end of 2024 in light of the Corporation's prospects at that time and we are pleased with the performance of the business. The outlook on long-term incentive plans is positive with payouts remaining closely tied to shareholder value creation. The three-year adjusted net earnings per share(3) growth and relative TSR performance conditions set in 2022 for the 2023 PSU awards were met at 167% of target.

We continue to believe that our short-term and long-term executive compensation framework appropriately rewards the performance of our executives while being fair, competitive and aligned with Shareholder expectations and value creation. We also believe that our approach to executive compensation supports the execution of the Corporation's strategic plan. The Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee and the Board remain fully engaged in ensuring WSP's executive compensation continues to be anchored on a disciplined and market competitive approach linked to performance.

Shareholder Engagement

In 2025, the "say on pay" advisory vote received 96.29% support from Shareholders, signaling strong Shareholder support for our executive pay programs. We believe we have the right balance between offering pay programs that reward short- and long-term performance appropriately while ensuring that pay remains fair, competitive and aligned with Shareholder expectations as WSP continues to grow and expand on a global scale. While the Board is satisfied with the results of the advisory vote, we continue to monitor trends and best practices on executive compensation in order to consistently ensure the relationship between pay and performance, and again this year, engaged with numerous Shareholders to ensure that their interests and concerns are considered in the assessment of our executive compensation program and to demonstrate our unwavering commitment to responsible governance and transparency.

As always, we welcome your feedback on our compensation programs and disclosure.

Sincerely,

Linda Smith-Galipeau

Chair of the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee

Annual Compensation Review Process

Role of the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee

On an annual basis, the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee:

  • reviews all elements of executive compensation for continued alignment with the Corporation's business strategy;
  • validates the elements of executive compensation and their value with market practices so they remain competitive and enable the Corporation to effectively attract and retain talent;
  • ensures that the performance objectives for each NEO and other executives of the Corporation are derived from, and generally align with, the Corporation's annual business plan objectives and reviews and recommends for approval to the Board of Directors the design of, and targets for, the annual bonus program;
  • reviews and recommends for approval to the Board of Directors the design and performance targets of the long-term incentive plans to ensure that the long-term incentive compensation arrangements for the NEOs and other executives of the Corporation are structured to align their interests with those of Shareholders and reward long-term performance that creates additional Shareholder value, but without encouraging excessive risk;
  • reviews and recommends for approval to the Board of Directors the CEO's salary, short-term and long-term incentive award levels and performance objectives for the upcoming year;
  • reviews the CEO's performance against objectives and, based on the Corporation's financial performance and the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee's assessment of the CEO's contribution, formulates its recommendation to the Board of Directors with respect to the appropriate bonus to be awarded to the CEO; and
  • reviews and recommends for approval to the Board of Directors the salaries, short-term and long-term incentive award levels and performance objectives for the upcoming year of the other NEOs and other executives of the Corporation following recommendations from the CEO.

Role of the Compensation Consultants

Independent Consultants

Since 2021, the GECC has retained Meridian to provide independent advice on executive compensation and related performance and compensation governance matters. In 2025, the GECC also retained the services of Meridian to assist in connection with: 1) general trends in executive compensation ; 2) the composition of the compensation peer group; 3) benchmarking of the compensation of some of the Corporation's executive officers, including the NEOs; 4) compensation risk review; 5) review of the executive compensation disclosure in the Management Information Circular; and 6) other matters related to executive compensation.

Decisions related to executive compensation remain the responsibility of the GECC and the Board, who, in determining executive compensation for 2025, considered the advice Meridian provided on executive compensation.

Meridian's Fees 2024 2025
Executive Compensation-Related Fees \$291,318.00 \$145,907.00
All Other Fees \$— \$—

Benchmarking

As part of its annual compensation review, the GECC reviews the comparator group used to benchmark executive compensation to confirm it is appropriate in light of the Corporation's size, breadth of services, complexity and geographic scope. In connection with the Corporation's 2025-2027 Global Strategic Action Plan process, the GECC reviewed the Peer Group with the support of Meridian to: 1) confirm the group of companies which are relevant and appropriate for benchmarking executive compensation; 2) confirm the group of companies which are relevant and appropriate for assessing TSR performance; and 3) determine if WSP should adopt separate peer groups for benchmarking executive compensation and assessing TSR performance. The GECC approved changes to the Peer Group, effective for 2025, and concluded that it was appropriate to maintain one peer group for benchmarking executive compensation and assessing TSR performance, and approved changes to this Peer Group for 2025.

The peer group used for benchmarking executive compensation in 2025 is composed of 18 companies. These companies are senior issuers like WSP, primarily headquartered in North America, offer professional consulting services in engineering, construction, environment and information technology with operations in markets such as buildings, transportation, infrastructure, energy, environment and industry, and are companies with whom WSP competes for business and executive talent (the "Peer Group"). Companies in the Peer Group also respond similarly to broader economic trends, and have long-term share price correlation with WSP, which makes the Peer Group appropriate for measuring relative total shareholder return for purpose of assessing PSU performance.

What Changed in 2025

The GECC, with the support of its independent compensation consultant, conducted a thorough review of both the STIP and LTIP programs for 2025 to ensure a strong alignment with the new 2025-2027 Global Strategic Action Plan and continued appropriateness of the executive compensation program in attracting and retaining key talent and encouraging the right behaviours.

LTIP

A decision was made to remove options from the LTIP mix and to increase the proportion of performance-based Redeemable PSUs. The increased weighting to Redeemable PSUs is designed to support WSP's strategy and align with long term Shareholder value creation. Therefore, the LTIP mix for NEOs in 2025 was composed of Redeemable PSUs (70%) and Redeemable RSUs (30%) issued pursuant to the Share Unit Plan.

The NEOs annual LTIP awards now consist of Redeemable PSUs and Redeemable RSUs issued pursuant to the Share Unit Plan which can be held for up to 10 years and provide for long-term shareholder alignment. Vested Redeemable PSUs and Redeemable RSUs(1) count towards the Executive Share Ownership Requirement while allowing executives the flexibility to redeem such units at the time of their choosing, once vested and prior to their expiry, therefore eliminating the need for the option to receive DSUs in lieu of Redeemable RSUs. Therefore, starting in 2025, executives subject to the Executive Share Ownership Requirement may no longer elect to receive DSUs in lieu of RSUs as a component of their annual LTIP award.

See section "Long-Term Incentive Plans".

STIP

To ensure that the STIP program remains aligned with the Corporation's strategic vision and operating model, changes were made to the financial and strategic metrics that comprise the STIP program with a view to drive behaviours in line with WSP's evolving strategy, maintaining a formulaic balanced scorecard, along with a strategic multiplier which is based on the achievement of key areas of strategic importance to WSP, primarily related to our sustainability ambitions.

In determining the various metrics of the 2025 STIP, the Board approved, upon recommendation of the GECC, financial performance indicators that are part of the Corporation's annual business plan and long-term strategic plan and are highly correlated with value creation for Shareholders. Revenue-based metrics were set in terms of Acquisition Growth for STIP Purposes and Net Revenue for STIP Purposes, profitability is to be measured using Adjusted EBITDA for STIP Purposes and Operating Profit for STIP Purposes, and Free Cash Flow for STIP Purposes is to be used to measure cash conversion efficiency. For each financial measure, targets were set at the consolidated level for global executives and at consolidated and regional levels for regional executives and were approved by the Board, upon recommendation of the GECC.

See section "Annual Short-Term Incentive Plan".

Total Compensation

A compensation benchmarking analysis for the NEOs and other executives was performed by the independent compensation consultant, and the Board, upon recommendation of the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee, approved revised compensation packages in December 2024, effective for 2025. Increases to the total compensation packages for the CFO, COO, President, Canada and President, USA were approved for 2025 to position their compensation competitively with the median of the Peer Group and to reflect their experience and sustained strong performance in their roles. An increase to the total compensation package for the CEO was approved for 2025 to position his compensation within a competitive range above market median which is a reflection of his long tenure, high sustained performance and impact on the organization.

Executive Compensation for 2026

The Corporation's compensation approach remains substantially unchanged for 2026. LTIP performance metrics, quantum and mix remain the same for 2026, focused on strong relative and absolute financial performance, aligned with Shareholders' expectations and the Corporation's strategy. We will also keep the same STIP approach with key financial and strategic metrics, using a formulaic balanced scorecard aligned with our business strategy, along with a strategic multiplier which is based on the achievement of key areas of strategic importance to WSP.

Managing Compensation-Related Risk

Risk Mitigation in our Compensation Program

The Board of Directors and the GECC use internal and external resources to assess the risks associated with the Corporation's compensation policies and practices. The Corporation's compensation programs are regularly reviewed to align the pay outcomes with the Corporation's risk management strategies, to encourage appropriate behaviours and to discourage inappropriate risk taking by Management.

The Corporation uses, among other things, the following practices to mitigate excessive risk taking:

  • there is an appropriate mix of pay, including fixed and performance-based compensation with short- and long-term performance conditions and vesting periods;
  • annual bonus awards are capped and payouts are based on the achievement of a balance of financial and strategic performance objectives. Strategic objectives mitigate risk by adding focus to sustainable results;
  • long-term equity-based incentive grants, if and when granted, are approved by the Board of Directors and performance is measured on a balance of relative and absolute targets, with 70% of the long-term incentive mix being in performance-based share units;
  • when considering the approval of bonus payouts and long-term incentive grants, if any, the Board of Directors considers whether the anticipated costs are reasonable relative to the Corporation's projected and actual income, and amounts are not paid under the Corporation's annual incentive plans until achievement of the relevant financial results have been confirmed by audited financial statements of the Corporation;
  • the Corporation's performance-based LTIPs, being the PSUs and Redeemable PSUs, fully vest after three years subject to a vesting percentage based on the level of achievement of performance objectives, ensuring that executives remain exposed to the risks of their decisions through overlapping vesting periods that align with risk realization periods. RSUs and Redeemable RSUs fully vest after three years of their issuance and their intrinsic value lies in the long-term performance of the Share price, thereby aligning interests of the executives with those of the Shareholders. LTIP is awarded annually, so overlapping vesting periods ensure that executives remain exposed to the long-term effects of their strategic and business decisions;
  • the Corporation has an Executive Share Ownership Requirement for the NEOs and other key executives of the Corporation;
  • the Corporation's insider trading policy prohibits Directors and employees of the Corporation from engaging in trading or entering into arrangements involving derivative instruments securities or other arrangements that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of any equity securities related to the Corporation;
  • the Corporation's Corporate Governance Guidelines prohibit executives and Directors from purchasing financial instruments to hedge a decrease in the market value of the Shares held for the purpose of the share ownership requirements;
  • the Corporation has adopted an executive compensation clawback policy (the "Clawback Policy") which allows the Board of Directors to require repayment of incentive compensation under certain circumstances (see section "Executive Compensation Clawback Policy" ); and
  • the GECC maintains overall discretion to adjust annual incentive payouts to take into account both unexpected and extraordinary events.

The Board of Directors and the GECC believe the Corporation's compensation plans are designed and administered with the appropriate balance of risk and reward, do not encourage excessive risk-taking behaviours and are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Corporation.

Executive Compensation Clawback Policy

Under the Clawback Policy, which applies to all awards made under the Corporation's STIP and LTIPs from the date of the adoption of such policy and to all members of senior management of the Corporation, including NEOs, the Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by governing laws and to the extent it determines it is in the best interests of the Corporation to do so, require reimbursement of all or a portion of incentive benefits received by a member of senior management or a former member of senior management of the Corporation in situations where:

  • (a) the amount of a bonus or incentive compensation was calculated based upon, or contingent on, the achievement of certain financial results that were subsequently the subject of, or affected by, a restatement of all or a portion of the Corporation's financial statements and such member or former member of management engaged in gross negligence, intentional misconduct or fraud that caused or partially caused the need for the restatement; or
  • (b) such member or former member of management engaged in gross negligence, intentional misconduct or fraud.

Anti-Hedging Policy

Under the Corporation's Corporate Governance Guidelines, Directors and executives may not purchase financial instruments to hedge a decrease in the market value of the Shares held for the purpose of their Director Share Ownership Requirement or Executive Share Ownership Requirement, as applicable. In addition, the Corporation's insider trading policy prohibits Directors and employees of the Corporation from engaging in trading or entering into arrangements involving derivative instruments securities or other arrangements that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of any equity securities related to the Corporation.

Executive Share Ownership Requirement

To increase the alignment of executives' and Shareholders' interests, the Corporation requires executives to hold a multiple of their base salary in Shares or designated equity-based awards (the "Executive Share Ownership Requirement"). The Executive Share Ownership Requirement is to be progressively achieved over a five-year period starting on January 1 following the date of appointment to an executive position or upon being subject to the requirement. Consequently, an executive is expected to meet 20% of the aggregate Executive Share Ownership Requirement by January 1 of the following year that they become subject to it (the "Executive Minimum Annual Requirement") and the aggregate threshold by the end of the five-year period. To help them achieve their Executive Share Ownership Requirement, in 2025, NEOs and other executives of the Corporation who are subject to the Executive Share Ownership Requirement could elect to defer their STIP payout into DSUs, in which case the Corporation would match 25% of the amount they elect to defer into Matching DSUs, up to the first 50% of their STIP payout.

The CEO is also required to maintain his Executive Share Ownership Requirement for one (1) year following retirement or resignation.

A participant that has been subject to the Executive Share Ownership Requirement for three (3) years or more and has not met his or her Executive Minimum Annual Requirement must use up to 50% of the net after-tax proceeds of Option exercises or RSU, Redeemable RSU, PSU or Redeemable PSU payments or redemptions to purchase Shares.

The current market price is used when assessing the value. The executives may not purchase financial instruments to hedge a decrease in the market value of the Shares held for the purpose of the Executive Share Ownership Requirement.

Executive Pay and Performance

Performance Graph

The following performance graph compares the cumulative total return of a \$100 investment on the TSX in the Shares from January 1, 2021 until December 31, 2025 with the cumulative total return on the S&P/TSX Composite Index, assuming reinvestment of all distributions and dividends, for the period from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2025.

Comparison of Total Shareholder Return with S&P Index

Dec. 31, 2021 Dec. 31, 2022 Dec. 31, 2023 Dec. 31, 2024 Dec. 31, 2025
WSP \$153.93 \$132.94 \$158.48 \$217.30 \$214.66
S&P/TSX Composite \$121.74 \$111.19 \$120.22 \$141.84 \$181.91

The above performance graph and table show both a strong increase in the Corporation's total shareholder return (the "Total Shareholder Return"), and strong performance by the Corporation as the Total Shareholder Return exceeded the S&P/TSX Composite Total Return by approximately 18% over the period from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2025.

Trends in Compensation

The following graph illustrates the relationship between the aggregate compensation paid to all NEOs relative to the Corporation's performance and Total Shareholder Return of a \$100 Share investment over the period from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2025:

Trends in Compensation(1)

(1) This table reflects total NEO compensation of the five NEOs who were employed by the Corporation as of December 31 of each year.

The trend generally demonstrates a high level of shareholder return since 2020, and a strong alignment between the total compensation granted to the NEOs and the Corporation's cumulative Total Shareholder Return. The compensation in the chart above reflects the grant date value of equity awards. As a significant proportion of NEO compensation is in the form of equity-based at-risk compensation, compensation ultimately realized by our NEOs is closely aligned with the value created for our Shareholders. Also, as a consequence of the Corporation's evolution and continuous growth, the compensation plans offered to NEOs, namely the STIP and the LTIP, have been reviewed annually and updated as needed to continue to support a pay-for-performance philosophy and strong alignment of executive compensation with Shareholders interests.

Cost of Management Ratio

The cost of management ratio expresses the total compensation reported for the NEOs as a percentage of the Corporation's net revenues over a period of five years from the year ended December 31, 2021 until the year ended December 31, 2025.

2021 2022 2023 2024 2025

Executive Compensation Program

Philosophy

The Corporation's compensation program is designed to attract, retain and incentivize executives to achieve performance objectives aligned with the Corporation's vision and strategy consistent with shareholder value creation. It also allows the Corporation to reward those executives who deliver superior financial performance.

The Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee is responsible for defining, reviewing and monitoring the Corporation's compensation policy and guidelines for the NEOs and other executives of the Corporation. To achieve its goals, the Corporation maintains a balance between Shareholders' interests and the compensation and benefits of its executives. Compensation mix and levels are driven by business strategy and take into account the competitiveness of total compensation among international organizations with similar economic and business profiles. By linking executives' and Shareholders' interests through performance- contingent compensation, the compensation strategy contributes to the achievement of long-term value creation for Shareholders. For more information on Shareholders' involvement in the executive compensation program, see section "Say on Pay".

The Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee reviews executive compensation annually (see section "Annual Compensation Review Process").

Compensation Positioning

To accomplish its goals of attracting, retaining and incentivizing executives to achieve performance objectives aligned with the Corporation's vision and strategic orientation, the Corporation sets target total compensation within a competitive range of the median of the Peer Group used for executive compensation benchmarking. See section "Benchmarking" for a description of the Peer Group.

More specifically:

  • base salary is generally reviewed annually and it is typically set within a competitive range of the median of the Peer Group, reflecting experience, individual contribution and sustained performance, scope of the role and responsibilities, the need to attract new executives and other specific circumstances. The base salary may also be reviewed annually and aligned with the relevant regional salary increases;
  • STIP targets are defined as a percentage of base salary and are typically set within a competitive range of the median of the Peer Group, but actual payment may exceed market median when results surpass objectives or fall below median (possibly to zero) when results are below expectations;
  • LTIP grants of PSUs or Redeemable PSUs take into account the Participant's performance and contribution to the Corporation's overall results while striving to ensure the competitiveness of total compensation with the median of the Peer Group;
  • LTIP grants of RSUs and Redeemable RSUs promote retention and are aligned with long-term performance objectives and Shareholder interests;
  • LTIP grants of DSUs ensure additional long-term alignment with Shareholders; and
  • savings plans, benefits and other perquisites are aligned with regional practices in the countries where the Corporation operates and are generally aligned with the market median value.

General Description of the 2025 Compensation Elements

The following chart outlines the Corporation's compensation elements for 2025, which together, aim to provide a competitive compensation package to the Corporation's executives. In addition to base salary, the Corporation's executive compensation includes a mix of annual and long-term variable compensation, which is "at-risk" compensation since payment is not guaranteed. The Corporation believes this links the interests of the Corporation's executives with those of Shareholders by rewarding executives for creating Shareholder value.

Compensation Mix

In determining the appropriate mix of compensation elements, the Governance, Ethics and Compensation Committee considers market practices including the compensation mix for similar positions in the Corporation's Peer Group as well as the Corporation's pay-for-performance philosophy.

As illustrated in the chart below, a significant portion of NEO compensation is performance-based. In total, approximately 88% of the target compensation of Alexandre L'Heureux, the President and CEO of the Corporation, and 73% of the average target compensation of the other NEOs was "at-risk" in 2025.

Mix of Compensation Elements

(The figures in the charts are based on the target compensation mix for 2025)

DESCRIPTION OF COMPENSATION PAID TO NEOs IN 2025

Base Salary

The base salaries of the NEOs and certain other executives of the Corporation are reviewed annually by the GECC. For 2025, annual base salaries were reviewed and adjusted to reflect individual performance and positioning versus the Peer Group. Base salaries are typically set within a competitive range of the median of the Peer Group and reviewed annually to maintain alignment with regional markets. Base salaries may be set above or below median to reflect experience, individual contribution and performance, changes in scope or responsibilities, and other specific circumstances.

The salary increases set out in the table below were designed to position salaries competitively with market median and, for the CEO, within a competitive range above market median which is a reflection of his long tenure, high sustained performance and impact on the organization.

Comparison of Base Salaries from 2024 to 2025

2024(1) 2025(1) % Change
CEO \$1,500,000 \$1,750,000 16.7%
Other NEOs(2)(3) \$3,109,537 \$3,472,091 11.7%

(1) Base salaries are those in effect as at December 31 of each year, for those NEOs who were employed by the Corporation as of December 31 of each year. Therefore we are comparing five NEOs for the year ended December 31, 2024 and five NEOs for the year ended December 31, 2025.

(2) Mr. Naysmith is paid in GBP. His annual salary for each of 2024 and 2025 was converted on the basis of an average exchange rate calculated from Bloomberg rates for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2025 which were, respectively, \$1.7509 to GBP 1 in 2024 and \$1.8421 to GBP 1 in 2025.

(3) Mr. Sczurko is paid in USD. His annual salary for each of 2024 and 2025 was converted on the basis of an average exchange rate calculated from Bloomberg rates for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2025, which were, respectively, \$1.3699 to USD 1 in 2024 and \$1.3965 to USD 1 in 2025.

Annual Short-Term Incentive Plan

NEOs are entitled to receive STIP awards for achieving or exceeding pre-determined goals derived from the annual business plan. The GECC aligns the Corporation's STIP metrics with the Corporation's strategic plan and Peer Group practices.

In determining the various metrics of the 2025 STIP, the Board approved, upon recommendation of the GECC, financial performance indicators that are part of the Corporation's annual business plan and long-term strategic plan and are highly correlated with value creation for Shareholders.

The GECC focused the STIP for 2025 on revenue-based metrics in terms of Acquisition Growth for STIP Purposes and Net Revenue for STIP Purposes, profitability was measured using Adjusted EBITDA for STIP Purposes as well as Operating Profit for STIP Purposes, and cash conversion efficiency was measured using Free Cash Flow for STIP Purposes. For each financial measure, targets were set at the consolidated level for global executives and at regional levels for regional executives and were approved by the Board, upon recommendation of the GECC.

The STIP program includes a strategic multiplier which consists of five strategic performance measures linked to the Corporation's business strategy. For the NEOs, such multiplier is reviewed by the GECC and recommended for approval by the Board. After assessing the level of achievement, the strategic multiplier of 90% to 110% is applied to the level of payout determined based on the achievement of the STIP financial measures; in other words, the percentage of achievement of the financial measures is multiplied by a performance factor between 90% and 110%.

In order to trigger the payment of an STIP, each NEO must meet a minimum financial threshold expressed in consolidated and/or regional Adjusted EBITDA, as applicable. No STIP is payable if the Adjusted EBITDA for STIP Purposes or Adjusted EBITDA by Segment for STIP Purposes is below 90% of target, except at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

Description of the 2025 STIP Financial Measures

The following graphics and table describe the 2025 STIP financial measures. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the performance measures of global NEOs (CEO, CFO and COO) were entirely based on global consolidated results, while the financial performance measures of the regional NEOs (President, Canada and President, USA) were entirely based on regional results.

2025 Strategic Performance Measures

The STIP includes a basket of strategic performance measures as a multiplier (90% to 110%) of performance on the STIP financial measures. For 2025, the Board approved, upon recommendation of the GECC, strategic metrics and targets that are aligned with the 2025-2027 Global Strategic Action Plan and annual business strategy and will serve to guide behaviours that will support those ambitions.

The following table presents each of the strategic performance measures and their expected (target) achievement for the financial year ended December 31, 2025, which are set on a consolidated basis for global NEOs and on a regional basis for regional NEOs. The categories do not carry any formal, predetermined individual weighting. The details relating to the achievement of each metric are not disclosed as they are competitively sensitive.

Category Measurement
Employee experience Improvement on overall employee experience, measured through the WSP's 2025 surveys
Talent management Overall employee career progression through professional advancement

2025 STIP Performance - Results and Related Achievement

For 2025, the GECC reviewed the Corporation's results and assessed the CEO's performance against his performance goals, including the STIP financial and strategic measures. The GECC also analyzed and discussed with the CEO the performance of the other NEOs and executives of the Corporation in order to recommend their respective STIP payments to the Board for approval.

The consolidated financial measures, weighting, and achievement under the STIP for the financial year ended December 31, 2025 are set out in the table below. The detail relating to the targets and achievement of each performance measure for regional NEOs (President, Canada and President, USA) is not disclosed as the information is competitively sensitive. The targets were set on the basis that they could be achieved with significant effort.

The GECC assessed, for each NEO, actual performance relative to each of the strategic metric targets, based on global or regional results, as applicable, then evaluated the overall global or regional performance using sound judgment. While the global or regional performance, as applicable, on any particular strategic metric varied between NEOs, the overall level of achievement on the strategic multiplier was determined to be 110% for the President, USA, and 105% for the other NEOs. The GECC then recommended to the Board for approval the individual strategic multiplier for each NEO, which was approved by the Board and applied to each NEO on their 2025 STIP financial measures.

Long-Term Incentive Plans

The following table describes the various types of grants made to NEOs in 2025 under the LTIPs and their respective performance conditions. Performance conditions selected in 2023, 2024 and 2025 are aligned with the Corporation's strategic plan and with the interests of Shareholders.

Same as DSUs above.

2025 LTIP Awards

NEOs 2025 LTIP awards consisted of Redeemable RSUs and Redeemable PSUs. The target award value for each NEO is defined as a percentage of their respective annual salary. When making decisions in determining the 2025 awards of Redeemable PSUs and Redeemable RSUs to be granted to each NEO, the GECC gave due consideration to the value of each NEO's present and potential future contribution to the Corporation's success, and considered other factors such as the Corporation's performance both in absolute terms and relative to the Peer Group and the degree to which previous long-term incentive grants continue to incentivize executives to achieve the Corporation's long term objectives and pursue initiatives that will create value for the Shareholders over the long run.

2025 LTIP Mix

DSUs are not a part of the LTIP mix. However, in 2025, all executives of the Corporation who are subject to the Executive Share Ownership Requirement, could elect to defer their STIP payout into a grant of DSUs, with the Corporation matching 25% of the amount they elect to defer into Matching DSUs, up to the first 50% of their STIP payout. This is meant to provide an incentive to elect this very long-term and shareholder aligned form of compensation. DSUs are similar to Shares, as holders participate in Share price and dividends (deferred to the time the DSUs are redeemed), but DSUs cannot be redeemed until the executive ceases to be an employee of the Corporation, focusing executives on long-term shareholder value creation.

The following table shows the various awards under the LTIPs for each NEO approved by the Board, upon recommendation by the GECC, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

See section "Descriptions of Plans, Type of Equity Awards and Performance Measures".

(3) Mr. Sczurko was promoted to the role of President, USA on April 3, 2024 and was not eligible to defer his STIP award in respect of the performance year ended December 31, 2024. Executives in the USA who are eligible for this deferral must make their election prior to the commencement of the performance year.

Employee Share Purchase Plan

The Corporation launched the ESPP for employees in Canada in 2014. In early 2025, it began expanding the program globally, where practical and permitted by local regulations. The ESPP aims to make Share ownership more accessible and strengthen employees' connection to the Corporation. Under the plan, eligible employees who invest in Shares receive a 50% matching contribution from the Corporation, up to an annual maximum amount. The ESPP is managed by external providers and Shares are purchased on the market.

Retirement Plans and Other Benefits

Retirement and Savings Plans

The Corporation uses different retirement and savings plans based on the location of each NEO. The following table summarizes the various retirement and savings plans in place for the NEOs.

(1) Certain senior executives in Canada, including the Canadian NEOs, are permitted to direct their employee and employer contributions into the Employee Share Purchase Plan, rather than into a Group RRSP, Group tax-free savings account, non-registered account or deferred profit sharing plan. For 2025, the Corporation agreed to Messrs. L'Heureux and Michaud's request to allocate their personal and the Corporation's contributions to their ESPP account rather than their savings plans. These amounts are reflected in the "Summary Compensation Table" under the column entitled "All Other Compensation".

Please refer to the "Summary Compensation Table" for more information on the individual value of these benefits for each NEO.

Benefits and Other Perquisites

The Corporation offers an array of competitive benefits to its employees independent of their role in the organization and taking into consideration general practices in each of the regions where the Corporation operates. NEOs are covered under the same benefits programs applicable to other employees in their respective region and which typically include life, medical, dental and disability insurance.

Long-Term Incentive Plans and Awards

Description of Plans, Type of Equity Awards and Performance Measures

In 2025, the Corporation administered four long-term incentive plans: (i) a stock option plan, initially adopted in 2011, as amended from time to time (the "Stock Option Plan") under which Options can be issued, (ii) a performance share unit and restricted share unit plan adopted in 2024 as a consolidation of the Performance Share Unit Plan initially adopted in 2014 and the Restricted Share Unit Plan initially adopted in 2015, as amended from time to time (the "PSU & RSU Plan"), (iii) a deferred share unit plan adopted in 2015, as amended from time to time (the "DSU Plan"), and (iv) a share unit plan adopted in 2022, as amended from time to time (the "Share Unit Plan" and collectively with the Stock Option Plan, the PSU & RSU Plan, and the DSU Plan, the "LTIPs") under which Redeemable PSUs and Redeemable RSUs can be issued.

Detailed information on the LTIPs is included in Schedule D of this Circular and summaries of such plans are included below.

PSU & RSU Plan

The PSU & RSU Plan was designed to provide Eligible Participants with the opportunity to participate in the longterm success of the Corporation, to promote a greater alignment of their interests with those of Shareholders, to reward Eligible Participants for their performance in creating value for Shareholders and to provide a means through which the Corporation may attract and retain key personnel. Awards are made to such Eligible Participants who contribute in a material way to the present and future success of the Corporation, who share responsibility for the management, growth and protection of the business of the Corporation and have a significant impact on the Corporation's long-term results. PSUs & RSUs issued under the PSU & RSU Plan can only be settled in cash.

For each grant of PSUs under the PSU & RSU Plan, the Board, upon recommendation from the GECC (i) designates the Eligible Participants who may receive PSUs under the PSU & RSU Plan, (ii) determines the number of PSUs to be credited to Eligible Participants, (iii) determines the performance measures and objectives that shall determine the proportion, not exceeding 200%, of such awarded PSUs becoming Vested PSUs, and (iv) determines the Performance Period, the whole subject to the terms and conditions of the PSU & RSU Plan.

For each grant of RSUs under the PSU & RSU Plan, the Board, upon recommendation from the GECC (i) designates the Eligible Participants who may receive RSUs under the PSU & RSU Plan, (ii) fixes the number or dollar amount of RSUs to be granted to Eligible Participants and the date or dates on which such RSUs shall be granted, and (iii) determines the vesting determination date, which shall be the third anniversary from the date such RSUs were awarded, or such other date as fixed by the GECC, but no later than the last day of the Restriction Period, the whole subject to the terms and conditions of the PSU & RSU Plan.

In accordance with the terms of the PSU & RSU Plan, a Dividend Equivalent is to be computed in the form of additional PSUs and/or RSUs calculated on each dividend payment date in respect of which normal cash dividends are paid on the Shares. Such PSUs and/or RSUs vest in proportion to and on the same Vesting Date according to the same vesting conditions (including performance criteria, if any) as the underlying PSUs and/or RSUs.

Stock Option Plan

The Stock Option Plan was designed to increase the interest in the Corporation's welfare of those officers, senior executives or key employees of the Corporation who share responsibility for the management, growth and protection of the business of the Corporation and have a significant impact on the Corporation's long-term results, to reward their performance in creating value for Shareholders and to provide a means through which the Corporation may attract and retain key personnel.

For each grant of Options under the Stock Option Plan, the Board, upon recommendation from the GECC (i) designates the Eligible Participants who may receive Options under the Stock Option Plan, (ii) fixes the number of Options, if any, to be granted to the Eligible Participants and the date or dates on which such Options shall be granted, (iii) determines the price per Share to be payable upon the exercise of each such Option, which shall not be less than the Market Value of such Shares at the time of the grant, and (iv) determines the relevant vesting provisions, including performance criteria, if any, and the term of the Option which shall not exceed 10 years, the whole subject to the terms and conditions of the Stock Option Plan.

Share Unit Plan

Effective December 7, 2022, the Corporation adopted the Share Unit Plan for key employees of the Corporation and its affiliates.

The Share Unit Plan was designed to provide Eligible Participants with the opportunity to participate in the longterm success of the Corporation, to promote a greater alignment of their interests with those of Shareholders, to reward Eligible Participants for their performance and to provide a means through which the Corporation may attract and retain key personnel.

Under the Share Unit Plan, the Corporation may grant share units to Eligible Participants in the form of redeemable restricted share units ("Redeemable RSUs") and redeemable performance share units ("Redeemable PSUs", and together with Redeemable RSUs, "Share Units") that are based on the value of a Share and vest over time and may be subject to performance-based measures. Vested Share Units may be redeemed by the Eligible Participant at any time after vesting but prior to the tenth (10th) anniversary of the grant date for Shares issued from treasury, market-purchased Shares or cash, or any combination of them, at the choice of the Eligible Participant.

For each grant of Redeemable RSUs under the Share Unit Plan, the Board, upon recommendation from the GECC shall (i) designate the Eligible Participants who may receive Redeemable RSUs under the Share Unit Plan, (ii) fix the number or dollar amount of Redeemable RSUs to be granted to the Eligible Participants and the Award Date (as defined in the Share Unit Plan), and (iii) determine the relevant conditions and vesting provisions and Restriction Period (as defined in the Share Unit Plan) of such Redeemable RSUs, the whole subject to the terms and conditions prescribed in the Share Unit Plan and in any award notice. Unless otherwise specified in an award notice, all Redeemable RSUs will vest on the 3rd anniversary of the Award Date.

For each grant of Redeemable PSUs under the Share Unit Plan, the Board, upon recommendation from the GECC shall (i) designate the Eligible Participants who may receive Redeemable PSUs under the Share Unit Plan, (ii) fix the number or dollar amount of Redeemable PSUs to be granted to the Eligible Participants and the Award Date, and (iii) determine the vesting schedules, performance period, performance measures and objectives and other conditions for Redeemable PSUs under the Share Unit Plan, the whole subject to the terms and conditions prescribed in the Share Unit Plan and in any award notice. Upon conclusion of each performance period, between 0% - 200% of the Redeemable PSUs shall vest upon the conclusion of each performance period, subject to the achievement of specified performance measures and objectives.

In accordance with the terms of the Share Unit Plan, a Dividend Equivalent is to be computed in the form of additional Redeemable PSUs and/or Redeemable RSUs, as applicable, calculated on each dividend payment date in respect of which normal cash dividends are paid on the Shares. Such Redeemable PSUs and/or Redeemable RSUs vest in proportion to and on the same Vesting Date according to the same vesting conditions (including performance criteria, if any) as the underlying Redeemable PSUs and/or Redeemable RSUs.

DSU Plan

The DSU Plan allows for the issuance of DSUs to Eligible Directors and Eligible Employees. DSU awards to Eligible Employees serve to assist those senior executives of the Corporation who are subject to Executive Share Ownership Requirements in meeting their minimum equity requirements. For the purpose of the DSU Plan, Eligible Employees are those employees of the Corporation designated as such by the Board, which currently include key senior executive officers of the Corporation. The DSU Plan is designed to enhance the Corporation's ability to attract and retain talented individuals to serve as members of the Board and in executive positions, to promote alignment of interests between Participants and Shareholders and to assist Participants in fulfilling the Director Share Ownership Requirements and the Executive Share Ownership Requirements, as applicable. DSUs issued under the DSU Plan can only be settled in cash.

Unless otherwise determined, DSUs vest immediately upon being granted. However, no holder of DSUs has any right to receive any payment under the DSU Plan until he or she ceases service as an employee and, if applicable, as a Director of the Corporation for any reason (other than for cause), including by reason of death, disability, retirement or resignation.

In accordance with the terms of the DSU Plan, a Dividend Equivalent is to be computed in the form of additional DSUs calculated as of each dividend payment date in respect of which normal cash dividends are paid on the Shares and vesting on each such date, unless otherwise determined. The settlement of such additional DSUs will occur in accordance with the same terms as the underlying DSUs.

(1) Value of the unexercised in-the-money Options at fiscal year-end is calculated based on the difference between the closing price of the Shares on the TSX on December 31, 2025 of \$248.52 and the Option exercise price, multiplied by the number of unexercised Options.

(2) Consist of unvested Matching DSUs, PSUs, RSUs, Redeemable PSUs and Redeemable RSUs, including incremental Matching DSUs, PSUs, RSUs, Redeemable PSUs and/or Redeemable RSUs issued as Dividend Equivalents.

(3) The value of Share-based awards that have not vested at fiscal year-end is determined by multiplying the number of units held as at December 31, 2025 by the closing price of the Shares on the TSX on December 31, 2025 of \$248.52. The value of unvested PSUs and/or Redeemable PSUs assume that performance and vesting conditions will be fully met at 100%. PSUs and/or Redeemable PSUs awarded on January 1, 2023 will vest on March 31, 2026 at a performance factor of 167%.

(4) Consist of DSUs, Matching DSUs and DSUs issued as Dividend Equivalents. The value of DSUs that have vested but not been paid out at fiscal year-end is determined by multiplying the number of vested DSUs held as at December 31, 2025 by the closing price of the Shares on the TSX on December 31, 2025 of \$248.52.

(1) Value vested during the year is calculated based on the difference between the closing price of the Shares on the TSX on the vesting date and the Option exercise price, multiplied by the number of Options vested. The Options were not exercised on the vesting date and may never be exercised. The actual gains, if any, depend on the value of the Shares on the date of exercise, if applicable.

(2) Consist of RSUs issued on January 1, 2022 which have vested on January 1, 2025 and PSUs issued on January 1, 2022 which have vested on March 31, 2025. Consist of RSUs, PSUs and/or DSUs issued as Dividend Equivalents which have vested during 2025. These amounts also include the value of the DSUs issued pursuant to the deferral of any portion of the 2024 STIP during 2025, as disclosed in the section entitled "DSU Awards from STIP Deferral" which are immediately vested (employee deferral portion) and any Matching DSUs which have vested during 2025. The value of RSUs, PSUs and DSUs (including dividends) that have vested during the year is determined by multiplying the number of units that have vested during 2025 by the closing price of the Shares on the TSX on December 31, 2025 of \$248.52, unless the units have been redeemed or paid out in the same year, in which case they have been reported at their actual paid out value. The value of PSUs that have vested during the year is determined by multiplying the number of units that have vested on March 31, 2025 by the Market Price and based on a performance multiplier of 144%.

(3) The amounts in this column represent the bonus earned under the STIP for the year ended December 31, 2025.

(4) Mr. Naysmith is paid in GBP. Amounts shown in this table for non-equity incentive plan compensation is converted on the basis of an average exchange rate calculated from Bloomberg rates, which for the year ended December 31, 2025 was \$1.8421 to GBP 1.

(5) Mr. Sczurko joined WSP on September 21, 2022 and received his first award of LTIP in 2023. Mr. Sczurko is paid in USD. Amounts shown in this table for non-equity incentive plan compensation is converted on the basis of an average exchange rate calculated from Bloomberg rates, which for the year ended December 31, 2025 was \$1.3965 to USD 1.

(1) Comprised of an aggregate of 594,963 Options issued under the Stock Option Plan, 355,238 Redeemable PSUs and 39,618 Redeemable RSUs issued under the Share Unit Plan. The number of Redeemable PSUs is based on a maximum performance multiplier of 200%.

(2) Redeemable PSUs and Redeemable RSUs may be redeemed for cash, Shares purchased on the market or Shares issued from treasury, at the choice of the Participant (subject to restrictions in certain jurisdictions).

(3) There is no exercise price for Redeemable PSUs and Redeemable RSUs.

(4) Comprised of an aggregate 1,406,510 remaining Options issued under the Stock Option Plan and 1,105,144 Redeemable RSUs and Redeemable PSUs under the Share Unit Plan, assuming Redeemable PSUs would be vesting at the maximum performance multiplier of 200% and all Share Units would be redeemed in Shares issued from treasury.

Under the Stock Option Plan, the total number of Shares reserved and available for grant and issuance pursuant to Options is limited to 3,108,184 Shares, representing approximately 2.31% of the 134,806,772 issued and outstanding Shares as of December 31, 2025. As of such date, an aggregate of 2,099,188 Options had been issued to employees of the Corporation, representing 1.56% of the 134,806,772 issued and outstanding Shares as of December 31, 2025, of which 397,514 had been cancelled and returned to the pool and 1,106,711 had been exercised. As a result, as of December 31, 2025, 1,406,510 Options remain available for issuance under the Stock Option Plan, representing 1.04% of the 134,806,772 issued and outstanding Shares as of December 31, 2025, and 594,963 Options are outstanding, representing 0.44% of the 134,806,772 issued and outstanding Shares as of December 31, 2025. The weighted average remaining term of the 594,963 outstanding Options as of December 31, 2025 is 5.8 years. For a full description of the Stock Option Plan, including amendments made thereto in the last fiscal year, please refer to Schedule D of this Circular.

Under the Share Unit Plan, the total number of Shares reserved and available for grant and issuance pursuant to Redeemable PSUs and Redeemable RSUs (together "Share Units") is limited to 1,500,000 Shares, representing approximately 1.11% of the 134,806,772 issued and outstanding Shares as of December 31, 2025. As of such date, an aggregate of 226,354 Share Units had been issued to employees of the Corporation having the potential to be redeemed for Shares issued from treasury, representing 0.17% of the 134,806,772 issued and outstanding Shares as of December 31, 2025, of which 9,117 Share Units have been cancelled and returned to the pool. Assuming a maximum performance multiplier of 200% on the Redeemable PSUs (which could bring the potential number of Share Units issued to employees to 394,856 - being 355,238 Redeemable PSUs and 39,618 Redeemable RSUs), and assuming all outstanding Share Units will be redeemed in the form of Shares issued from treasury, then as of December 31, 2025, there would be 1,105,144 Share Units remaining available for issuance under the Share Unit Plan, representing 0.82% of the 134,806,772 issued and outstanding Shares as of December 31, 2025. For a full description of the Share Unit Plan, including amendments made thereto in the last fiscal year, please refer to Schedule D of this Circular.

The actual burn rate realized will be contingent upon the number of units redeemed in Shares issued from treasury.

TERMINATION AND CHANGE OF CONTROL BENEFITS

The Corporation or its subsidiaries have employment agreements in place with each NEO that provide for termination and Change of Control benefits. All such employment agreements are for an indefinite term and include confidentiality covenants which apply indefinitely.

Employment Agreement Payments in case of Termination

The following table summarizes the non-solicitation and non-competition covenants, severance payable on a termination without cause and Change of Control provisions applicable to the NEOs as at December 31, 2025. Benefits provided in the event of a Change of Control to certain NEOs in their employment agreements are based on a "double trigger", meaning that they require both a change of control and a termination of employment without cause. NEOs are also entitled to their respective savings plans benefits in connection with a retirement.

No change of control provision

(1) Applies in the event of termination without cause or resignation for good reason following a Change of Control. Good reason is defined as one of the following events: (a) a relocation of the executive's principle workplace; (b) a material diminution in job responsibilities or assignment of duties inconsistent with respect to the executive's position; (c) any other change in the terms and conditions of the executive's employment that would constitute a constructive dismissal, which could include a material reduction in compensation, and (d) in the case of Mr. L'Heureux and Mr. Naysmith, any failure by WSP to comply with any of the provisions of the executive's employment agreement, other than an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent failure not occurring in bad faith and which is remedied by WSP promptly after receipt of notice.

(2) If, at the moment of termination, Mr. Naysmith has not completed two financial years in the role of COO, then his target bonus would be used for calculating any STIP entitlement, for the missing financial year.

Incentive Compensation Payments in case of Termination

The STIP and LTIPs also provide for different payments to NEOs under various termination scenarios which are summarized below. Benefits provided in the event of a Change of Control to certain NEOs in their employment agreements are based on a "double trigger", meaning that they require both a change of control and a termination of employment without cause.

  • (1) Severance payments are calculated based on base salary as of December 31, 2025. See section "Employment Agreement Payments in case of Termination" for a description of the STIP entitlements and severance payments due to each NEO following a termination without cause or a termination following a Change of Control. Benefits may include the value of employer contributions to savings, pension, insurance or ESPP, based on each NEO's individual entitlement as per their employment agreement.
  • (2) The amounts payable pursuant to the LTIPs include only those incremental payments afforded under each termination scenario which are unvested units that become vested and payable, or are otherwise allowed to continue to vest and then become payable, in connection with each termination scenario described in the table above. The value of Options is calculated based on the difference between the closing price of the Shares on the TSX on December 31, 2025 of \$248.52 and the Option exercise price, multiplied by the number of unexercised Options. The value of unvested PSUs and unvested Redeemable PSUs has been calculated based on the closing price of the Shares on the TSX on December 31, 2025 of \$248.52 and using a performance multiplier of 100%. The values of the RSUs, Redeemable RSUs and DSUs have been calculated based on the closing price of the Shares on the TSX on December 31, 2025 of \$248.52.
  • (3) As of December 31, 2025, Mr. Naysmith would have met the age and service requirements triggering an LTIP entitlement in the event of an Early Retirement. The value shown assumes that the other Early Retirement requirements are met. As of December 31, 2025, Mr. Sczurko would have met the age and service requirements triggering an LTIP entitlement in the event of a Normal Retirement. The value shown assumes that the other Normal Retirement requirements are met. No other NEO meets the definition of Early Retirement or Normal Retirement. The LTIPs include conditions applicable to a retirement (as defined in the LTIPs) that must be complied with in order to receive payments or benefits, including non-compete and non-solicitation covenants.
  • (4) For each of Mr. L'Heureux, Mr. Michaud and Mr. Naysmith, the amount of pay, STIP and benefits in the event of a termination following a Change of Control applies in the event of termination without cause or resignation for good reason following a Change of Control. See section "Employment Agreement Payments in case of Termination" for a description of the entitlements in the event of a termination following a Change of Control and related definitions. If each of Mr. Sczurko or Ms. Dumas were terminated without cause following a Change of Control, they would be entitled to the same amounts under the column "Termination without cause".
  • (5) The amounts payable pursuant to the LTIPs upon a Change of Control assumes that the Change of Control and termination date occurred on December 31, 2025. Our LTIPs contain a double trigger Change of Control; therefore, in the absence of a termination without cause within 24 months following the Change of Control, there would be no accelerated vesting.
  • (6) Mr. Naysmith is paid in GBP. The amounts shown above are in Canadian dollars converted on the basis of an average exchange rate calculated from Bloomberg rates, which for the year ended December 31, 2025 was \$1.8421 to GBP 1.
  • (7) Mr. Sczurko is paid in USD. The amounts shown above are in Canadian dollars converted on the basis of an average exchange rate calculated from Bloomberg rates, which for the year ended December 31, 2025 was \$1.3965 to USD 1.

Schedule C - Non-IFRS Reconciliations

The Corporation reports its financial results in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). WSP uses a number of financial measures when assessing its results and measuring overall performance. Some of these financial measures are not calculated in accordance with IFRS. Regulation 52-112 respecting Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure ("Regulation 52-112") prescribes disclosure requirements that apply to the following types of measures used by the Corporation in this Circular: (i) non-IFRS financial measures; (ii) non-IFRS ratios; (iii) total of segments measures; and (v) supplementary financial measures.

In this Circular, the following non-IFRS financial measures are used by the Corporation: net revenues; adjusted EBITDA; adjusted net earnings per share (Adjusted EPS); and free cash flow. In addition, the following executive compensation financial metrics are used: Adjusted EBITDA for STIP Purposes, Free Cash Flow for STIP Purposes, Operating Profit for STIP Purposes, Net Revenues for STIP Purposes, and Acquisition Growth for STIP Purposes. Management believes that these non-IFRS and other financial measures provide useful information to investors regarding the Corporation's financial condition and results of operations as they provide key metrics of its performance. These non-IFRS and other financial measures are not recognized under IFRS, do not have any standardized meanings prescribed under IFRS and may differ from similar computations as reported by other issuers, and accordingly may not be comparable. These measures should not be viewed as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS.

Additional details and reconciliations to the most directly comparable IFRS measure for non-IFRS and other financial measures can be found in WSP's management's discussion and analysis for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2025, which is posted on WSP's website at www.wsp.com, and filed on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. Explanations of the composition and usefulness of each of these measures can be found in section 22, "Glossary of segment reporting measures, non-IFRS and other financial measures" of WSP's MD&A for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2025, which section is incorporated by reference herein, as posted on WSP's website at www.wsp.com, and filed on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

Schedule D - Long-Term Incentive Plans

STOCK OPTION PLAN

Effective January 1, 2011, the Corporation adopted a long-term incentive plan for granting long term incentives named the Long-Term Incentive Plan. On December 7, 2022 the plan was amended and renamed the Stock Option Plan (the "Stock Option Plan"). Under the Stock Option Plan, the Corporation may grant, subject to certain terms and conditions, options ("Options") to purchase Shares to certain management employees holding positions that can have a significant impact on the Corporation's long-term results.

The Stock Option Plan is administered by the Board, which shall also be responsible for its interpretation, construction and application. The Board may delegate its authority to a committee selected by the Board (the "Committee", and the Board and the Committee are, to the extent the Board has delegated authority under the Stock Option Plan to such committee, the "Administrator"). Pursuant to the Stock Option Plan, only those officers, senior executives and other employees of the Corporation or its affiliates that occupy key positions as determined by the Administrator are eligible to receive Options ("Eligible Participants", and when such Eligible Participants are granted Options, the "Participants"). In determining Options to be granted under the Stock Option Plan, the Administrator gives due consideration to the value of each Eligible Participant's present and potential future contribution to the Corporation's success.

Under the Stock Option Plan, the total number of Shares reserved and available for grant and issuance pursuant to Options is limited to 3,108,184 Shares, representing approximately 2.31% of the 134,806,772 issued and outstanding Shares as of December 31, 2025 (the "Total Reserve").

Shares in respect of which an Option is granted but not exercised prior to the termination of such Option, due to the expiration, termination or lapse of such Option or otherwise, are available for Options to be granted thereafter. The Stock Option Plan provides that the aggregate number of Shares issued to any one insider and associates of such insider under the Stock Option Plan or any other proposed or established share compensation arrangement within any one-year period shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the issued and outstanding Shares, and that the aggregate number of Shares (a) issued to insiders and associates of such insiders within any one-year period and (b) issuable to insiders and associates of such insiders at any time under the Stock Option Plan or any other proposed or established share compensation arrangement shall in each case not exceed ten percent (10%) of the issued and outstanding Shares.

Options granted under the Stock Option Plan may not be assigned or transferred except by will or the laws of succession in a deceased Participant's jurisdiction.

The Board may amend the Stock Option Plan or any Option so long as the amendment shall not adversely alter or impair any Options previously granted, except as permitted in the Stock Option Plan, as agreed with a Participant, or as the Board determines is required, to comply with applicable law or the rules of the TSX.

Without limiting the foregoing, but subject to the below, the Board may, without Shareholder approval, make the following amendments to the Stock Option Plan or any Option:

  • amendments of a "housekeeping" nature;
  • a change to the vesting provisions of any Option;
  • the introduction or amendment of a cashless exercise feature payable in securities, whether or not such feature provides for a full deduction of the number of underlying securities from the Total Reserve;
  • the addition of a form of financial assistance and any amendment to a financial assistance provision which is adopted;
  • any changes or corrections as may be required for the purpose of curing or correcting any ambiguity or defect or inconsistent provision or clerical omission or mistake or manifest error.

The Board will be required to obtain any required approval of the TSX and Shareholder approval for the following amendments:

  • any change to the maximum number of Shares issuable from treasury under the Stock Option Plan, including an increase to the fixed maximum number of Shares or a change from a fixed maximum number of Shares to a fixed maximum percentage, other than an adjustment pursuant to a change in capitalization;
  • any amendment which reduces the exercise price of any Option or other entitlement granted under the Stock Option Plan after it has been granted or any cancellation of an Option or other entitlement and the substitution of that Option or entitlement by a new Option or entitlement with a reduced price, except in the case of an adjustment pursuant to a change in capitalization;
  • any amendment which extends the expiry date of any Option or other entitlement granted under the Stock Option Plan beyond the original expiry date, except in case of an extension due to a Black-Out Period;
  • any amendment which would allow non-employee directors to be eligible for awards under the Stock Option Plan;
  • any amendment which would permit any Option or other entitlement granted under the Stock Option Plan to be transferable or assignable by any Participant other than by will or by the laws of succession of the domicile of a deceased Participant under the Stock Option Plan;
  • any amendment which increases the maximum number of Shares that may be issued to (i) insiders and associates of such insiders; or (ii) any one insider and associates of such insider under the Stock Option Plan or any other proposed or established share compensation arrangement in a one-year period, except in case of an adjustment pursuant to a change in capitalization; and
  • any amendment to the amendment provisions of the Stock Option Plan,

provided that Shares held directly or indirectly by insiders benefiting from certain amendments shall be excluded when obtaining such Shareholder approval.

Options

For each grant of Options under the Stock Option Plan, the Administrator shall (i) designate the Eligible Participants who may receive Options under the Stock Option Plan, (ii) fix the number or dollar amount of Options to be granted to each Eligible Participant, (iii) determine the price per Share to be payable upon the exercise of each such Option (the "Option Price"), which shall not be less than the market value of such Shares at the time of the grant, and (iv) determine the relevant vesting provisions, including performance criteria, if any, and the term of the Option which shall not exceed ten years, the whole subject to the terms and conditions of the Stock Option Plan. For purposes of the Stock Option Plan, the "market value" of the Shares shall be: (i) if the grant is made outside a Black-Out Period, the volume weighted average trading price of the Shares on the TSX for the five (5) trading day period ending on the last trading day before the day on which the Option is granted or, if not available, the closing market price of the Shares at the time of the grant; (ii) if the dollar amount is approved by the Administrator outside a Black-Out Period as part of a periodic grant program but with an effective award date that falls on the first day of a Black-Out Period, the volume weighted average trading price of the Shares on the TSX for the five (5) trading day period ending on the last trading day before the first day of such Black- Out Period; or (iii) if the dollar amount is approved by the Administrator during a Black-Out Period, then the grant will be made no earlier than on the sixth (6th) day following the end of such Black-Out Period using the volume weighted average trading price of the Shares on the TSX for the five (5) trading day period following the last day of such Black-Out Period. The Option Price for Shares that are subject to any Option granted to a USA Taxpayer shall be the greater of the market price determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence and the market value determined in a manner required for such Option to be an exempt stock right under Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, all unexercised Options shall be cancelled at the expiry of such Options. If the expiration date falls on or within ten days following the expiration of a Black-Out Period, it is automatically extended to the tenth trading day after the expiration of such Black-Out Period.

If a Participant's employment is terminated for cause, Options terminate on the effective date of the termination or the date specified in the notice of termination. If a Participant's employment is terminated other than for cause, by reason of death, reason of disability or upon retirement, any Options may be exercised if they have vested at the time of termination or cessation of employment, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator. Such Options are exercisable for a period of 90 days after the termination date or prior to the expiration of the original term of such Options, whichever occurs earlier, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator. A change of employment among the Corporation and its affiliates does not affect the Participant's Options.

In the event of the death of a Participant, his/her vested Options at the time of death must be exercised by his/her heirs within one year of the Participant's death or prior to the expiration of the original term of such Options, whichever occurs earlier.

In the event of the injury or disability of a Participant or in the event of retirement of a Participant, any Options may be exercised by the Participant as the rights to exercise such Options accrue; however such Options shall only be exercisable within five years after the cessation of employment (or the effective date on which the Participant becomes eligible long-term disability benefits) or the retirement, as applicable, or prior to the expiration of the original term of such Options, whichever occurs earlier. In the event a Participant takes a voluntary leave of absence, any Options may be exercised by the Participant as the rights to exercise such Options accrue. The Stock Option Plan contains a clawback provision in the case of untrue retirement or breach of non-compete or non-solicit, at the discretion of the Board or Directors, payments made in excess of what a participant would have received had they resigned, instead of retired, would be subject to clawback.

If a Participant has a written agreement with the Corporation or an affiliate governing the services rendered by the Participant and that agreement contains a restrictive covenant, the terms of such restrictive covenant shall automatically extend to cover the Option so granted under the Plan. If the Administrator determines that the Participant has breached the restrictive covenant, the Administrator may cancel the Option in whole or in part.

Prior to their expiration or earlier termination in accordance with the Stock Option Plan, Options are exercisable in whole or in part and at such time or times and/or pursuant to performance criteria or other vesting conditions as the Administrator may determine in its sole discretion at the time of granting the Option.

The Stock Option Plan also provides that in the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Stock Option Plan), outstanding Options shall be converted or exchanged into or for, rights or other securities of substantially equivalent value, as determined by the Board in its discretion, in any entity participating in or resulting from a Change of Control. If, as a result of a Change of Control, the Shares will cease trading on a North American stock exchange and voting shares of any surviving entity or parent entity resulting from the Change of Control will not be traded on such a stock exchange, then all outstanding Options shall vest immediately prior to such Change of Control. If a Participant's employment is terminated by the Corporation or an Affiliate without Cause and the Termination Date is within 24 months following the completion of a transaction resulting in a Change of Control, then all Options granted to the Participant prior to the Change of Control and held by such Participant on the Termination Date shall immediately vest on the Termination Date.

Stock Option Plan Amendments in the Last Year

No amendments were made to the Stock Option plan during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. On December 3, 2025, the Board approved amendments to the Stock Option Plan to clarify the scope and duration of the restrictive covenants applicable to Participants upon retirement as well as other changes of a housekeeping nature.

SHARE UNIT PLAN

Effective December 7, 2022, the Corporation adopted a share unit plan (the "Share Unit Plan") for key employees of the Corporation and its affiliates.

Under the Share Unit Plan, the Corporation may grant share units to key employees in the form of redeemable restricted share units ("Redeemable RSUs") and redeemable performance share units ("Redeemable PSUs", and together with Redeemable RSUs, "Share Units") that are based on the value of a Share and vest over time and may be subject to performance-based measures. Vested Share Units may be redeemed by the participant at any time after vesting but prior to the tenth (10th) anniversary of the grant date for Shares issued from treasury, marketpurchased Shares or cash, at the choice of the participant.

The Share Unit Plan is administered by the Board. The Board may delegate its authority to a committee selected by the Board (the "Committee", and the Board and the Committee are, to the extent the Board has delegated authority under the Share Unit Plan to such committee, the "Administrator"). Pursuant to the Share Unit Plan, only those full-time officers, senior executives, employees and dependent contractors of the Corporation or its affiliates that occupy key positions as determined by the Administrator are eligible to receive Share Units ("Eligible Participants", and when such Eligible Participants are awarded Share Units, the "Participants"). In determining Share Units to be granted under the Share Unit Plan, the Administrator gives due consideration to the value of each Eligible Participant's present and potential future contribution to the Corporation's success.

Under the Share Unit Plan, the total number of Shares reserved and available for grant and issuance pursuant to Share Units is limited to 1,500,000 Shares, representing approximately 1.11% of the 134,806,772 issued and outstanding Shares as of December 31, 2025.

Shares in respect of which Share Units are granted but not redeemed under the Share Unit Plan due to the cancellation or termination of such Share Units or otherwise, shall be available for Share Units to be granted thereafter. The Share Unit Plan provides that the aggregate number of Shares issued to any one insider and associates of such insider under the Share Unit Plan or any other proposed or established share compensation arrangement within any one-year period shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the issued and outstanding Shares, and that the aggregate number of Shares (a) issued to insiders and associates of such insiders within any one-year period and (b) issuable to insiders and associates of such insiders at any time under the Share Unit Plan or any other proposed or established share compensation arrangement shall in each case not exceed ten percent (10%) of the issued and outstanding Shares.

Share Units awarded under the Share Unit Plan are not assignable or transferable, whether voluntary or by operation of law, except by will or the laws of succession in a deceased Participant's jurisdiction.

The Board may from time to time, without notice and without approval of the Shareholders, amend, modify, change, suspend or terminate the Share Unit Plan or any Share Units granted pursuant thereto as it in its discretion determines appropriate, provided, however, that such amendment shall not adversely alter or impair any Share Units previously granted except as permitted in the Share Unit Plan, as agreed with a Participant, or as the Board determines is required or desirable to comply with applicable law or the rules of the TSX. Participant consent shall not be required in connection with the termination of the Share Unit Plan where the vesting of all outstanding Share Units is accelerated. If the Board terminates or suspends the Share Unit Plan, no new Share Units shall be credited to a Participant and outstanding Share Units may be either accelerated and settled or remain outstanding, provided that outstanding Share Units will not be entitled to Dividend Equivalents on or after the termination or suspension of the Share Unit Plan unless the Board determines otherwise.

Without limiting the foregoing, but subject to the below, the Administrator may, without Shareholder approval, make the following amendments to the Share Unit Plan or any Share Units:

  • amendments of a "housekeeping" nature;
  • a change to the vesting provisions of any Share Units; and
  • any such changes or corrections as may be required for the purpose of curing or correcting any ambiguity or defect or inconsistent provision or clerical omission or mistake or manifest error.

The Administrator will be required to obtain any required approval of the TSX and Shareholder approval for the following amendments:

  • any change to the maximum number of Shares issuable from treasury under the Share Unit Plan, including an increase to the fixed maximum number of Shares or a change from a fixed maximum number of Shares to a fixed maximum percentage, other than an adjustment following certain corporate transactions;
  • any amendment which extends the vesting period of any Share Units beyond the original date, except in case of an extension due to a Black-Out Period;
  • any amendment which would allow non-employee directors to be eligible for awards under the Plan;
  • any amendment which would permit any Share Unit granted under the Plan to be transferable or assignable by any Participant other than by will or by the laws of succession of the domicile of a deceased Participant;
  • any amendment which increases the maximum number of Shares that may be issued to (i) insiders and associates of such insiders; or (ii) any one insider and associates of such insider under the Share Unit Plan or any other proposed or established share compensation arrangement in a one-year period, except in case of an adjustment following certain corporate transactions; and
  • any amendment which deletes or reduces the range of amendments which require Shareholder approval under the amendment provisions of the Share Unit Plan.

A Redeemable RSU is a unit equivalent in value to a Share that does not vest until after a specified period of time, or satisfaction of other vesting conditions as determined by the Administrator. For each grant of Redeemable RSUs under the Share Unit Plan, the Administrator shall (i) designate the Eligible Participants who may receive Redeemable RSUs under the Share Unit Plan; (ii) fix the number or dollar amount of Redeemable RSUs to be granted to each Eligible Participant and the Award Date (as defined in the Share Unit Plan), and (iii) determine the relevant conditions and vesting provisions and Restriction Period (as defined in the Share Unit Plan) of such Redeemable RSUs, the whole subject to the terms and conditions prescribed in the Share Unit Plan and in any award notice. Unless otherwise specified in an award notice, all Redeemable RSUs will vest on the third anniversary of the Award Date.

A Redeemable PSU is a unit equivalent in value to a Share that does not vest unless certain performance criteria are met within a specified performance period, as determined by the Administrator. For each grant of Redeemable PSUs under the Share Unit Plan, the Administrator shall (i) designate the Eligible Participants who may receive Redeemable PSUs under the Share Unit Plan; (ii) fix the number or dollar amount of Redeemable PSUs to be granted to each Eligible Participant and the Award Date; and (iii) determine the vesting schedules, performance period, performance measures and objectives and other conditions for Redeemable PSUs under the Share Unit Plan, the whole subject to the terms and conditions prescribed in the Share Unit Plan and in any award notice. Upon conclusion of each performance period, between 0% - 200% of the Redeemable PSUs shall vest, subject to the achievement of specified performance measures and objectives.

For purposes of the Share Unit Plan, the "market value" of the Shares shall be: (i) if the grant is made outside a Black-Out Period, the volume weighted average trading price of the Shares on the TSX for the five (5) trading day period ending on the last trading day before the Award Date or, if not available, the closing market price of the Shares at the time of the grant; (ii) if the dollar amount is approved by the Administrator outside a Black-Out Period as part of a periodic grant program but with an effective award date that falls on the first day of a Black-Out Period, the volume weighted average trading price of the Shares on the TSX for the five (5) trading day period ending on the last trading day before the first day of such Black-Out Period; or (iii) if the dollar amount is approved by the Administrator during a Black-Out Period, then the grant will be made no earlier than on the sixth (6th) trading day following the end of such Black-Out Period using the volume weighted average trading price of the Shares on the TSX for the five (5) trading day period following the last day of such Black-Out Period.

If the Corporation pays dividends, Participants will be entitled to receive Dividend Equivalents in the form of additional RSUs or PSUs (as applicable) as of each dividend payment date in respect of which normal cash dividends are paid on Shares. Dividend Equivalents will be computed on each dividend payment date but granted on the earlier of (i) April 15 of the fiscal year following the fiscal year in which the dividends were paid, or (ii) the Participant's Termination Date if the Participant retires, is terminated without cause, becomes disabled, or dies, and in the case of (i) or (ii) based on the Share Units credited to the Participant on each dividend record date. Dividend Equivalents will vest at the same time and on the same vesting conditions as the Share Units to which they relate.

Subject to the terms of the Share Unit Plan and except as otherwise provided in an Award Notice, a Participant may redeem a vested Share Unit for (i) a whole Share issued from treasury, (ii) a whole Share purchased on the open market, (iii) the equivalent cash value of a whole Share, or (iv) a combination of the foregoing. If a Participant does not redeem their vested Share Units within 10 years of the applicable Award Date, the vested Share Units will be redeemed for Shares issued from treasury. If the expiration or settlement of a Share Unit falls on or within ten days following the expiration of a Black-Out Period, it is automatically extended to the tenth day after the expiration of such Black-Out Period.

If a Participant's employment is terminated for cause, then any Share Units credited to the Participant that have not been settled on the effective date of the termination or the date specified in the notice of termination are immediately forfeited and cancelled as of such date. If a Participant's employment is terminated by the Corporation or an affiliate other than for cause, or if the Participant's employment is terminated by reason of disability, or upon Early Retirement, then a pro-rated amount of Share Units will vest on the vesting date applicable to the Share Units based on the period of time that the Participant was actively employed between the applicable award date and applicable vesting date. If a Participant's employment is terminated upon Normal Retirement, then all Share Units will continue to vest on the vesting date applicable to the Share Units. Participants whose employment is terminated other than for cause will have until the earlier of (i) 90 days following the effective date of the termination or the date specified in the notice of termination and (ii) any applicable expiration date to redeem any Share Units that were vested as of such date, and until the earlier of (iii) 90 days following the applicable vesting date and (iv) any applicable expiration date to redeem any awards that vest following the effective date of the termination or the date specified in the notice of termination. Participants who retire or become disabled shall have until the earlier of (i) five years following the cessation of employment (or the effective date on which the Participant becomes eligible longterm disability benefits) and (ii) any applicable expiry date to redeem their Share Units. If a Participant dies, all outstanding Share Units will immediately vest as of their date of death based on 100% performance, and the executor or administrator of their estate will generally have one year to redeem such vested Share Units, but subject to satisfying certain conditions may elect to redeem such vested Share Units by the end of the year following the year of the Participant's death. If a Participant resigns, their unvested Share Units are forfeited and cancelled as of the effective date of their resignation and their vested Share Units may be redeemed until the earlier of (i) 90 days following the effective date of the termination or the date specified in the notice of termination and (ii) the applicable expiry date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a change of employment or engagement within or among the Corporation or any Affiliate will not affect a Participant's Share Units. In all cases, the Administrator may resolve to permit the acceleration of vesting of any or all Share Units or waive termination of any or all Share Units. The Share Unit Plan contains a clawback provision in the case of untrue retirement or breach of non-compete or non-solicit, at the discretion of the Board or Directors, payments made in excess of what a participant would have received had they resigned, instead of retired, would be subject to clawback.

The Share Unit Plan also provides that in the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Share Unit Plan), outstanding Share Units shall be converted or exchanged into or for, rights or other securities of substantially equivalent value, as determined by the Board in its discretion, in any entity participating in or resulting from a Change of Control, or as otherwise determined by the Board in accordance with the terms of the plan. If, as a result of a Change of Control, the Shares will cease trading on a North American stock exchange and voting shares of any surviving entity or parent entity resulting from the Change of Control will not be traded on such a stock exchange, then all outstanding Share Units shall vest immediately prior to such Change of Control. If a Participant's employment is terminated by the Corporation or an Affiliate without Cause and the Termination Date is within 24 months following the completion of a transaction resulting in a Change of Control, then all Share Units granted to the Participant prior to the Change of Control and held by such Participant on the Termination Date shall immediately vest on the Termination Date.

In the event that there is a restatement of the Corporation's quarterly or annual financial statements, adjustments may be made to (i) reduce the number of Share Units in each grant relating to or made in the fiscal year for which the Corporation's annual financial statements have been restated, or containing the fiscal quarter for which the Corporation's annual quarterly financial statements have been restated, and (ii) vesting or the performance ratio based on the performance criteria affected by such restatement, as determined by the Administrator.

In the event of any subdivision, consolidation, share dividend, capital reorganization, reclassification, exchange, or other change with respect to the Shares, or a consolidation, amalgamation, merger, spin-off, sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the property of the Corporation or other distribution of the Corporation's assets to shareholders (other than a payment of dividends) at any time after the award of a Share Unit, such outstanding Share Units shall be adjusted in such manner as the Administrator deems appropriate to preserve, proportionately, the interests of Participants under the Plan.

In the event of a reorganization of the Corporation, an amalgamation of the Corporation, an arrangement involving the Corporation, a take-over bid (as that term is defined in the Securities Act (Québec)) for all of the Shares or the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Corporation, the Board may make such changes to awards of Share Units as it in its discretion considers appropriate in the circumstances.

Share Unit Plan Amendments in the Last Year

On November 6, 2024, the Board approved an amendment to the Share Unit Plan and such amendment was disclosed in detail in our 2025 Management Information Circular dated March 25, 2025. On December 3, 2025, the Board approved amendments to the Share Unit Plan to (i) clarify the scope and duration of the restrictive covenants applicable to Participants upon retirement; (ii) clarify that the default settlement for Participants who are neither a resident in Canada for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) or a Participant whose Award is not otherwise subject to taxation in Canada under the Income Tax Act (Canada) shall be by payment in cash, unless otherwise specified in the Participant's award notice; (iii) clarify that vested Share Units are not subject to forfeiture; and (iv) other changes of a housekeeping nature.

PERFORMANCE SHARE UNIT AND RESTRICTED SHARE UNIT PLAN

On March 12, 2014, the Board approved, following a recommendation of the GECC, the creation and issuance of PSUs in accordance with a newly adopted Performance Share Unit Plan (the "PSU Plan"). The PSU Plan was designed to provide Eligible Participants with the opportunity to participate in the long-term success of the Corporation, to promote a greater alignment of their interests with those of Shareholders, to reward Eligible Participants for their performance and to provide a means through which the Corporation may attract, motivate and retain key personnel.

Effective January 1, 2016, the Board approved, following a recommendation of the Governance, Ethics and Compensation, the creation and issuance of restricted share units to be granted by the Corporation ("RSUs") in accordance with a newly adopted Restricted Share Unit Plan (the "RSU Plan"). The RSU Plan was designed to increase the interest in the Corporation's welfare of Eligible Participants, who share responsibility for the management, growth and protection of the business of the Corporation or a Subsidiary, to provide an incentive to Eligible Participants to continue their services for the Corporation or a Subsidiary and to provide a means through which the Corporation may attract, motivate and retain key personnel.

Effective January 1, 2024, the PSU Plan and the RSU Plan were combined into the Performance Share Unit and Restricted Share Unit Plan (the "PSU & RSU Plan"). The PSU & RSU Plan is administered by the GECC. Once vested, PSUs and RSUs issued under the PSU & RSU Plan are payable in cash only.

PSUs

For each grant of PSUs under the PSU & RSU Plan, the GECC shall (i) designate the Eligible Participants who may receive PSUs under the PSU & RSU Plan, (ii) determine the number of PSUs (including fractional PSUs) to be credited to each Eligible Participant, having regard to the market value of the Shares at the time of the grant, (iii) determine the performance measures and objectives that shall determine the proportion, not exceeding 200% of such awarded PSUs becoming Vested PSUs, and (iv) determine the Performance Period, the whole subject to the terms and conditions of the PSU & RSU Plan.

Following the completion of a Performance Period applicable to an award, the GECC shall assess the performance in light of the measures identified and the objectives set for such Performance Period. The GECC shall then determine the percentage, not to exceed 200%, of performance achieved during the Performance Period (the "Vesting Percentage") applicable to the awards. In making its determination, the GECC may set the Vesting Percentage at a higher percentage (not to exceed 200%) than would have resulted based solely on the performance measures and objectives. The number of PSUs that will vest for a Participant will correspond to the number of PSUs granted to such Participant on the grant date (including Dividend Equivalents) multiplied by the Vesting Percentage (the "Vested PSUs").

Participants are entitled to receive payment in cash for each Vested PSU in an amount equal to the number of Vested PSUs multiplied by the volume weighted average trading price of the Shares on the TSX for the five trading day period immediately preceding the date or dates determined by the GECC as the date(s) on which all or part of an award shall be valued and thereafter be paid, less any applicable withholding taxes.

RSUs

For each grant of RSUs under the PSU & RSU Plan, the GECC shall (i) designate the Eligible Participants who may receive RSUs under the PSU & RSU Plan, (ii) fix the number or dollar amount of RSUs, as the case may be, to be granted to each Eligible Participant and the date or dates on which such RSUs shall be granted (the "Award Date") and (iii) determine the relevant conditions and vesting provisions and Restriction Period of such RSUs. Under the PSU & RSU Plan, (i) RSUs shall vest three years after the Award Date unless otherwise provided for by the GECC (the "Vesting Date") and (ii) the "Restriction Period" shall be determined by the GECC, but in all cases shall end no later than December 31 of the calendar year which is three years after the calendar year in which the award is granted. Although the GECC could provide at the time of granting RSUs for any vesting conditions as it deems appropriate, the Corporation expects the vesting of all RSUs to be time-based only.

At latest on the 30th day after a Vesting Date, Participants are entitled to receive payment in cash for each RSU which vested on that date in an amount equal to the number of vested RSUs multiplied by the Market Value, less any applicable withholding taxes.

PSU & RSU Plan General Terms

If a dollar amount of PSUs or RSUs is granted instead of a specified number of PSUs or RSUs, the Participant's account shall be credited with a number of PSUs or RSUs equal to the approved dollar amount divided by the "Market Value" of one Share, which shall be (i) if the grant is made outside a Black-Out Period, the volume weighted average trading price of the Shares on the TSX for the five (5) Trading Day period ending on the last Trading Day before the Award Date or, if not available, the last available closing market price of the Shares at the time of the grant;(ii) if the dollar amount of PSUs or RSUs is approved by the GECC outside a Black-Out Period as part of a periodic grant program but with an effective Award Date that falls on the first day of a Black-Out Period, the volume weighted average trading price of the Shares on the TSX for the five (5) Trading Day period ending on the last Trading Day before the first day of such Black-Out Period; or (iii) if the dollar amount of PSUs or RSUs is approved by the GECC during a Black-Out Period, then the award will be made no earlier than on the sixth (6th) trading day following the end of such Black-Out Period using the volume weighted average trading price of the Shares on the TSX for the five (5) Trading Day period following the last day of such Black-Out Period.

If the Corporation pays dividends, Participants will be entitled to receive Dividend Equivalents in the form of additional PSUs or RSUs (as applicable) as of each dividend payment date in respect of which normal cash dividends are paid on Shares. Dividend Equivalents will vest at the same time and on the same vesting conditions as the PSUs and RSUs to which they relate.

Upon a Participant's Early Retirement, if a Participant's employment is terminated other than for cause, or if a Participant becomes Disabled (as defined in the PSU & RSU Plan), subject to any resolution passed by the GECC, then for each of the Participant's awards that have not become payable on the Termination Date or the date the Participant became Disabled, as applicable, a pro-rated payment amount, based on the amount of time such Participant was actively employed (i) during the Performance Period for such Award of PSUs; or (ii) between the Award Date and the Vesting Determination Date for such Award of RSUs, will be paid to the Participant after each applicable Valuation Date or Vesting Determination Date. However, the Participant shall cease to accumulate Dividend Equivalents as of the separation date. The PSU & RSU Plan contains a clawback provision in the case of untrue retirement or breach of non-compete or non-solicit, at the discretion of the Board or Directors, payments made in excess of what a participant would have received had they resigned, instead of retired, would be subject to clawback.

Upon a Participant's Normal Retirement, then the Participant's awards that have not become payable on the Termination Date will continue to vest and will be paid to the Participant after each applicable Valuation Date or Vesting Determination Date, except for any awards that were awarded to the Participant within the same fiscal year as the Termination Date, then for each of the Participant's awards that have not become payable on the Termination Date, a pro-rated payment amount, based on the amount of time such Participant was actively employed (i) during the Performance Period for such Award of PSUs; or (ii) between the Award Date and the Vesting Determination Date for such Award of RSUs, will be paid to the Participant after each applicable Valuation Date or Vesting Determination Date, provided that the Participant shall cease to accumulate Dividend Equivalents as of the Termination Date.

Upon the death of a Participant, any (i) PSU granted which have not become payable on or before the date of death will immediately vest and become payable and, for such purpose, the Vesting Percentage shall be 100% and the PSUs will be valued at the date of death; or (ii) RSU granted which have not become payable on or before the date of death shall immediately vest, the Vesting Determination Date shall be deemed to be the date of death.

Upon the termination of a Participant's employment for cause, if the participant is in breach of a restrictive covenant applicable to the Participant pursuant to their service agreement or for any other reason than those specified above, any unvested PSU or RSUs credited to such Participant's account shall be forfeited and cancelled along with any Dividend Equivalent in relation to such PSUs or RSUs.

In the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the PSU & RSU Plan), all outstanding PSUs and RSUs shall be converted or exchanged into or for, rights or other securities of substantially equivalent value, as determined by the Board in its discretion, in any entity participating in or resulting from a Change of Control, or as otherwise determined by the Board. If, as a result of a Change of Control, the Shares will cease trading on a North American stock exchange and voting shares of any surviving entity or parent entity resulting from the Change of Control will not be traded on such a stock exchange, then all outstanding RSUs and PSUs shall vest immediately prior to such Change of Control. If a Participant's employment is terminated by the Corporation or an Affiliate without Cause and the Termination Date is within 24 months following the completion of a transaction resulting in a Change of Control, then all RSUs and PSUs granted to the Participant prior to the Change of Control and held by such Participant on the Termination Date shall immediately vest on the Termination Date.

PSU Plan and RSU Plan Amendments in the Last Year

On November 6, 2024, the Board approved an amendment to the PSU & RSU Plan and such amendment was disclosed in detail in our 2025 Management Information Circular dated March 25, 2025. On December 3, 2025, the Board approved amendments to the PSU & RSU Plan to clarify the scope and duration of the restrictive covenants applicable to Participants upon retirement as well as other changes of a housekeeping nature.

DEFERRED SHARE UNIT PLAN

Effective May 12, 2015, the Board approved, following a recommendation of the GECC, the creation and issuance of deferred share units ("DSUs") in accordance with a newly adopted Deferred Share Unit Plan (the "DSU Plan"). The DSU plan, as amended, is designed to enhance the Corporation's ability to attract and retain talented individuals to serve as members of the Board and in executive positions, to promote alignment of interests between Participants and Shareholders and to assist Participants in fulfilling the Director Share Ownership Requirements and the Executive Share Ownership Requirements.

The DSU Plan is administered by the GECC. For the purpose of the DSU Plan, "Eligible Directors" are those directors who are not employees of the Corporation and are designated as such by the Board and "Eligible Employees" are those employees of the Corporation and are designated as such by the Board. When such Eligible Directors or Eligible Employees are granted DSUs, they are also referred to as "Participants". DSUs issued under the DSU Plan can only be settled in cash.

Eligible Directors and Eligible Employees may receive DSUs, with fractions computed to three decimal places, being calculated using the market value at the time of the grant. For the purpose of the DSU Plan, the "market value" is the volume weighted average trading price of a Share on the TSX for the five trading days immediately preceding the date of calculation or such other manner as is required or allowed by the rules and policies of the TSX, or, if not available, the last available closing market price of the Shares at the time of the grant. For the purpose of the DSU Plan, the Annual DSU Eligible Remuneration (i) in the case of an Eligible Director, is the amount of annual compensation payable to such Eligible Director in respect of his or her duties as a director of the Corporation and (ii) in the case of an Eligible Employee, is the amount of the long or short term incentive compensation payable to an Eligible Employee in respect of his or her duties and performance as an employee of the Corporation as may be determined by the GECC or any additional award of DSUs as may be determined by the GECC.

DSUs, including any Dividend Equivalents, vest immediately upon being granted, or such other vesting schedule as set forth in the Participant's grant notice.

If the GECC approves a dollar amount of DSUs to be granted to an Eligible Employee, such Participant's notional account shall be credited with a number of DSUs equal to the approved dollar amount divided by the Fair Market Value of one Share. For the purposes of an award made to an Eligible Employee, the "Fair Market Value" of the Shares shall be (i) if the award is made outside a Black-Out Period, the volume weighted average trading price of the Shares on the TSX for the five (5) Trading Day period ending on the last Trading Day before the Award Date or, if not available, the last available closing market price of the Shares at the time of the award; (ii) if the dollar amount of DSUs is approved by the Committee outside a Black- Out Period as part of a periodic grant program but with an effective award date that falls on the first day of a Black-Out Period, the volume weighted average trading price of the Shares on the TSX for the five (5) Trading Day period ending on the last Trading Day before the first day of such Black-Out Period; or (iii) if the dollar amount of DSUs is approved by the Committee during a Black-Out Period, then the award will be made no earlier than on the sixth (6th) day following the end of such Black-Out Period using the volume weighted average trading price of the Shares on the TSX for the five (5) Trading Day period following the last day of such Black-Out Period.

No Participant will have any right to receive any payment under the Plan, however, until he or she ceases to be an Eligible Director (and is not at that time an employee of the Corporation) or an Eligible Employee (and is not at that time a Director) for any reason (other than for Cause), including by death, disability, retirement or resignation (a "Termination Date"). The DSU Plan contains a clawback provision in the case of untrue retirement or breach of non-compete or non-solicit, at the discretion of the Board or Directors, payments made in excess of what a participant would have received had they resigned, instead of retired, would be subject to clawback.

In accordance with the terms of the DSU Plan, a Dividend Equivalent is to be computed in the form of additional DSUs calculated on each dividend payment date in respect of which normal cash dividends are paid on the Shares. Such additional DSUs will vest at the time these are credited to the recipient's account and settlement of such Dividend Equivalent will occur at the same time and in accordance with the same terms as the underlying DSUs. Dividend Equivalents shall be computed as of each dividend payment date by dividing: (i) the amount obtained by multiplying the amount of each dividend declared and paid per Share by the number of DSUs recorded in the Participant's account on the record date for the payment of such dividend, by (ii) the volume weighted average trading price of the Shares on the TSX for the five trading days immediately preceding the dividend payment date for the payment of any dividend made on the Shares, with fractions computed to three decimal places.

Once a Termination Date occurs for a given Participant, such Participant (or its legal representative in the case of death) will be entitled to file up to two redemption notices requesting settlement of all or part of the vested DSUs credited to its account by way of a cash payment calculated using the Market Value on the date of such filing. The "Market Value" means the volume weighted average trading price of a Share on the TSX for the five (5) Trading Days immediately preceding the date of calculation. Should no redemption notice be filed, then the Participant will be deemed to have filed a redemption notice for all its DSUs on December 1 of the first calendar year commencing after the date of the Participant's Termination Date (other than as a result of the Participant's death while serving as an Eligible Director or an Eligible Employee, in which case the date for determination of the Market Value will be the date of the Participant's death).

In the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the DSU Plan), all outstanding DSUs shall be converted or exchanged into or for, rights or other securities of substantially equivalent value, as determined by the Board in its discretion, in any entity participating in or resulting from a Change of Control, or as otherwise determined by the Board. If, as a result of a Change of Control, the Shares will cease trading on a North American stock exchange and voting shares of any surviving entity or parent entity resulting from the Change of Control will not be traded on such a stock exchange, then all outstanding DSUs shall vest immediately prior to such Change of Control. If a Participant's employment is terminated by the Corporation or an Affiliate without Cause and the Termination Date is within 24 months following the completion of a transaction resulting in a Change of Control, then all DSUs granted to the Participant prior to the Change of Control and held by such Participant on the Termination Date shall immediately vest on the Termination Date.

DSU Plan Amendments in the Last Year

On November 6, 2024, the Board approved an amendment to the DSU Plan and such amendment was disclosed in detail in our 2025 Management Information Circular dated March 25, 2025. On December 3, 2025, the Board approved amendments to the DSU Plan to clarify the scope and duration of the restrictive covenants applicable to Participants upon retirement as well as other changes of a housekeeping nature.
